No. They got people on furlough and this UA flying isn't growth for ASA, it is to prevent further shrinkage.

Wow, a company that is trying to find other flying opportunities to prevent shrinkage. What a concept! Maybe Comair will learn a thing or two from ASA.

Sorry I am sure this has already been asked but I don't remember the answer and this thread is too long to search for it. About to be furloughed what can I expect for passes? The contract says 30 days. But I thought it was longer then that. What about spouses and family?

The first 30 days after furlough date, you get usual except for jumpseat privs, after 30 days you travel s3cr (retirees/other), same as your parents/spouse/companion, buddy passes remain the same. traveling S3CR you are one step above buddy passes.

Just wanted to let everyone know of 2 job openings that will be coming along in a few short weeks.

1.) VW Volkswagen out of Chattonooga, Tenn. will be hiring production workers as well as others for thier new factory. Go to VW's website.

2.) Honda (Honda Jet) will also be hiring production workers(Later) as well as test pilots (Now). Go to Honda.com for the info.

For both sites, click on careers. Hope this helps someone, anyone! This is the worst job market in 30 years, keep ALL your options open.

Thanks for the information. I think all of us should post any available jobs for our Comair bothers and sisters.

Can someone confirm or deny that parents spouse get the same? From reading the brochure from the comair site it looks like they get bounced back down to yield fare passes.

Affirm Pantera. After 30 days of furlough YOU are the only one who is able to standby for free. All other eligible passriders-- parents, spouse, sig others, and kiddos pay a yield fare.
