The AFA thinks hiring (in our case) a 5th flight attendant would solve the problem with rotating breaks and an off duty FA onboard, but the law says off premise. Nor does it seem like the 1 hr pay per break missed is allowed on a routine basis. Nor does it seem that their contract can override CA state law.

It’s going to take a little transferring of the network. It’s early but small bases in all four would help but they can get it all done with just larger SEA and PDX bases for now. To grow in the future, well that’s gonna take some new bases.

There will be no huge attrition on the pilot side… Every major airline will end up closing CA bases, it doesn’t work with those laws.

I guess we will just have to wait and see what UAL does with us in the future.

Whats UAL’s motivation? I’m curious

Mass, Pilots, & SEA… I could see a little spite from SK too. You don’t do this transaction to get back at AAL, though. You do it, because you want to become the largest airline in the world, with the best domestic network, with the best route and hub structure.

Laugh away, but give me till November. I have seen enough, I am confident this is going to go down.

As much as I'd be overjoyed that United would purchase our little airline and as much as I sincerely would hope it would happen. I would be far more inclined to believe that management will do anything to slow pilot attrition down. Considering the June numbers that were released today, I wouldn't put it past management to start a rumor that we were being purchased by a more desirable airline. Post the busy summer schedule of course...

What were the June numbers, higher than normal attrition?
