Iah does have DL trips.
It's more of a really nice thing all CRJ pilots get United DL bennies than a justified thing. As the CRJ fleet weakens you might see that nice thing go.

Why am I not surprised? Sigh.

Of course, UA benefits are virtually worthless. I swear United has an algorithm that looks for any open seats on any flight and magically finds revenue customers to fill those seats, because UAL management can't stand the idea of a plane going anywhere with unpaid seats...

Same computer skw uses to make sure no reserve gets pad for doing nothing. OBR!

How right you are. When I was on RSV I ended up running into a guy I knew who was based in USA while I was in SFO. He'd been OBR'd to SFO, and I was running to catch my deadhead to...yup, IAH to sit reserve.

Neither of us got called to fly. But hey, at least CS managed to keep their reserve utilization level up!

Curious to know why you don't think we should have been certified?

Not singling out Skw, I'm saying all airlines because the Margin of safety isn't big enough in aspen

For proof, how about literally anything other than word of mouth rumors.

Well it's official now. Houston is done in December or January. United is doing all they can to help Mesa staff Houston.

I still haven't received the email so prob tomorrow. The SAPA guys were informing everyone today. What's really nice is the company is not going to offer incentives to anyone like past base closures.

I'm debating on taking a fourlough.

Will they allow a furlough without incentive to move? That's ridiculous on their part.

Check out RJ's comment under the "announcement" on the SAPA website. Sounds like it's NOT a done deal yet.
