So for the people who have been around during COVID, do you think enough people will take these buyouts to avoid furloughs?

Doesn't salaried employees indicate people working in HQ and stuff, we technically aren't salaried. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

No, you are correct. This is for office staff types etc.

As far as furloughs for pilots:
My guess is if the merger fails, 99% chance we furlough unless the attiriton without backfill is enough, supplemented with a CA displacemet bid to thin out CA numbers.
If merger passes, going to be what Robin probably tells Ted to do. I dont think Ted will have carte blanche to layoff Robin's future workforce without Robin giving the approval.

Just need to wait and see what Judge Young has decided for our futures.

The logical next step would be VILs and bringing back reserve day drops to save cash. I'm actually hoping for that. I'd love to take a few months off at 2/3 min guarantee.

If the merger fails I think you are going to see HUGE attrition.

These are United's drops to their new hires in intro this week

Ans:
Min 10, Max 30 for CA spots.
3 DEN CA 737
Unlimited EWR CA 737
Unlimited SFO CA 737


Unlimited IAH FO 737

10 ORD FO A320
So at least ten of the new hires are going to be upgraded to CA as soon as they have 500 hours at the company.p, like it or not.

Sonwhat does that mean at NK if the merger goes down?
Basically, anyone you try to downgrade will be out the door, any lineholder CAs that can no longer hold a line will be saying adios, anyone you furlough you will never see back, and any remaining FOs will be heading for greener pastures as soon as they can get their apps out. You'll wind up keeping only the highest paid guys you got, which will be a h€ll of a personnel hit for damn little savings. And if F9 try's to buy NK, most of those people will be pulling the handles too.

false . Forced upgrades are not in effect yet. They will be voluntary and must be off probation.
