I work For FedEX Freight
Shouldn't that be a bit of a warning? These pilots were furloughed and now work as car salesmen and mortgage brokers and yet 9 out of 10 choose NOT to come back.
What would you suppose would be the reason? Perhaps because working as a car salesmen is better? Maybe they earn more money? Whatever the reason it suggests that they have found a better life outside of aviation and one that is so superior that they would turn their back on UAL.
I spoke with a guy the other day who was laid off from UAL in 79 and never went back.

Ticket prices wouldn't have to increase nearly as much if the airline execs could find a way to live without that $20 trillion dollar bonus every year. Seriously, did none of these guys take any econ classes in college?
