Obviously if you want to compare yourself to the top half of the seniority list that is on the wide-body aircraft, different story, but overall with the proper perspective, not as bad as some make it out to be in my opinion.

I'm not optimistic that a BOS base would survive longer term with JFK/EWR/IAD. But c'est la vie. I'll move to one of their hubs (which are much better choices than our current ones) if that happens. There are certainly a ton of better things that would come with a UAL merger, so I shouldn't just talk crap about it.

Lol, what exactly has United management done that's so awe-inspiring?
DL management has separated themselves from the rest......but United? I'd say the only smart thing they did years ago was realize that merging was better than competing.
