Probably because United sees some benefit. I’m just guessing but Allegiant flies to small podunk towns that no one else flies to, so there is some benefit to having them since they’re usually the only operator going into a lot of these places. Frontier has a big hub in Denver so that benefits United employees that are based there.

That might be but it was said “if we grow enough” if that’s the logic then we would have zeds with them because were already bigger then Allegiant and Frontier.

You’ll get your travel benefits as soon as United buys spirit. The announcement is imminent, stay tuned. :cool:

I actually have been hearing that a lot lately. Like the last few weeks. Think somethings in the works.

Hypothetically if United bought us and we are both ALPA how would longevity, seniority, CA status work out?

ALPA merger policy.

JCBA first, the we each propose our integrated seniority list. If the two sides cannot agree an arbitrator decides. The JCBA would be done already to avoid another US air/ America West debacle.

There’s no way this is seriously a conversation.

Honest question. Is this sarcasm or are you being serious?
