I want to cash in my SWAG points for RR points and buy the family airline tickets for vacation to save some $$.
Can't fly on SW if I use personal time off.

I'm just happy that there's a thread where pilots seem to be able to achieve civil discourse.
Those Covid threads are the worst. Nobody is changing anybody else's mind, and everyone is awful to each other.

Kudos for planing on attending the informational pickets, see you there.

(SEA and SLC particularly)
If I didn't get hired here, I'd be commuting or working at UAL/F9 and rolling the dice that the company still exists at age 65.

DM me the dates you need. Maybe we can create our own tiny cartel.
