That UCAL thread is getting ugly! Wonder why wall street does not look at the conflicts and inefficiencies looming for that carrier! Losing money now and still have not paid out huge pay raises looming! Hope for the best I guess!

Thanks for the suggestions. Jokingly I told my wife I was going to get a stereo with a bunch of wireless speakers and put them all over the house.......She just cringed!! There's some stuff my kids listen to that I like but I can't remember any of them off hand.

The stuff my youngest (19) listens to sounds a lot the same....

Well Jon Najarian, CEO of Option Monster has UAL as one of his top shorts.

Short call question... I am assigned my 5th short call of the month for tomorrow. The next person on the list (3 seniority #s senior to me) has only had 2. We are in the same days available group. Shouldn't they get short call before me? Or am I getting the "descretion of the scheduler" butt pounding I get every month?

Wife and I went to that in Atlanta last year. We both walked out utterly speechless. By far the best concert event I've ever been to.

Yes, you should call and ask why.. If the other guy is finishing a trip and has rest, he might be on the availability page but not actually legal. I hope you can get the real story from scheduling.

Take lots of screenshots and if you don't get an acceptable resolution you can call 1-800-USA-ALPA and see if our scheduling pros can help.

Anyone notice charges for international flights leaving the US? Usually when I book I don't get a charge when I leave the US, but of course there are the taxes and airport use tax when leaving a foreign country and returning to US. I just booked a flight for my father and it did a payroll deduction for a one way flight from Atlanta to Colombia.
