It’s a 4000 mile trip off a 7000 foot runway. When I flew it to LAX in a widebody we needed a dry runway and 12 knots of headwind. I am told UAL flies it to EWR. It would be interesting to see their stats. I also suspect OGG has better yields than HNL.

L15 used to do OGG/ATL. Anyone remember if it ever had any restrictions?

Not our problem. Aeromexico will be flying the route on a 787.

Not trying to start a fight, or change any ideas that might come out of you guys brainstorming, but theres a couple things to keep in mind youre negotiating against.
For one, we as pilots arent negotiating against other pilot groups and we cant sell our services collectively to United. We dont get the kind of business relationship with management the guys who sell us fuel get. We won't either. They are the employer, we are the employee. I hate to offer this up because it will cause some other conversations, but the only way to fix that relationship with management is to have one union, one seniority list, across all unions. Probably wildly unpopular but i dont like bringing up problems without a starting place for a solution (even if unrealistic).

So sorry to ask probably for the one hundredth time, but can new hires get a religious exemption from the COVID-19 vaccine? It’s hard to keep up with what everyone’s doing.
If you're waiting for a class date any info given now is subject to change .

I am sure anything is possible but it really restricts what you can fly. I don’t see Delta wanting to deal with it but the law may not give them a choice.
