We have two current gates plus the hard stand starting in a few days. We will share also a gate with another airline. Not sure who and when we start that. But I am told in October it will become exclusively ours. We apparently make a killing in ORD so I can only assume us increasing frequencies or announcing new destinations.
I am told also the company sent the paperwork for the iPad and is now in the hands of the PMI. Don't expect this to be approved anytime soon. Maybe in a year or so. Not sure which iPad it will be but apparently expect 32G and wifi only.

Do you guys have different trip lengths or are they all 4 days? (sorry if this has been asked before I tried the thread search function and couldn't find the answer.)

Turns, Red Eye Turns, some Two days, some Three days, mostly Four days (usually preceded or follow by a turn) so it's a pseudo five day. As always 4 (few times 5) days off. Contract says 5 days off to a minimum of 4.....

Plus you'll never see a pilot that participated in the 2010 strike be appointed to any management position. Ever. Orders from BBB. I know a couple of very qualified individuals that put in for the DFW Chief Pilot position. All "battle star" captains, and with managerial experience and exceptional resumes (masters degrees, former instructors, etc.). Not even one got a call for an interview. Instead, an F/O with less than 2 year seniority and 1 year of managerial experience (according to his LinkedIn) was hired. There's a reason for that.
