I was hired at UA in 2000. Double furloughee. Now have 1000 guys hired after me that are above me. (Not whining, just stating fact)
How would we slot in JB pilots? Surely some guy at JB hired in 2001 or later, knowing he was only going to fly NB aircraft, shouldn't be above me. Right????
Not gonna happen anyway. It's going to be Spirit. The FLL agents say that all the UA big whigs were down there for a meeting a few weeks ago in Miramar, HQ of Spirit.

Can I get an AMEN from the congregation? This is just dumb to talk about something that probably won't happen and if it did, the DOJ probably wouldn't approve it. Too much overlap, too many slots in slotted airports, and too close to a monopoly in NYC. Besides, if it did begin to happen Delta and American would have something to say about it. Also, Delta has more money than anyone right now so in a bidding war, they would probably win. Or at least elevate the cost beyond where it actually makes sense.

I have also heard about this through a different source (not FLL gate agents, an OAL pilot). I did not hear specifically which big wigs attended
