hindsight 2020 (no pun intended), nobody knew you would be getting backpay 6 months later. The guys that were furloughed will probably disagree, the stress of being laid off definitely wasn't worth it.

don’t start dude, just don’t. We can all start mud slinging political views but it doesn’t solve a thing or change our situation.

Cool it, guys. I was being facetious. Obviously republicans and democrats joined forces to astronomically increase the debt burden of the country. Would it make you happier if I called it Trump's Bait-n-switch Chump Change dispenser? Seeing as he's not president anymore, it just didn't feel as relevant to me. Seriously, the bills make less fiscal sense than a payday loan.
What I was really getting at is I haven't heard if there's gonna be another airline bailout in part three. Do you guys know?

Probably no bailout. The cookie has to crumble at some point and some will fall and others will take their place.

I do have it on good authority that UA is giving most regional flying to Mesa and Republic because they have the 175s and to put it plainly, 200s are worthless to them right now.

Nothing in my bank account; I’m guessing it will be a lump sum payment but I could be wrong.

I wonder if people are going to bail after taking the money or just bail from AW altogether with the way things are going.
