I can't believe you don't think NAI is a threat to your careers! Incredible!

"Route launches from the U.S. for 2017 include: Oakland/San Francisco to Copenhagen (March 28); Los Angeles to Barcelona (June 5); New York/Newark to Barcelona (June 6); Oakland/San Francisco to Barcelona (June 7); and Fort Lauderdale to Barcelona (August 22). Earlier this week, Norwegian also announced a new route from Orlando to Paris, launching on July 31, 2017.

Norwegian operates one of the world’s youngest fleets comprised of brand new Boeing 787 Dreamliners. All long-haul flights include dual class (Premium and Economy) service."

Why did President Obama allow NAI into our skies and our airports?

The Trump administration had the ability to block NAI. Trump reversed most of Obama's legacy, except NAI. I thought Trump was for labor?

I think most conservatives favor competition over a gift for labor. He's all for labor I think, but he wants companies to compete. I think the entire thing was rushed through. However, our ALPA legislative army should have been able to thwart this and explain to both administrations what unfair competition is. ALPA needs to do a better job in making the aviation industry great again. Trump wouldn't have needed to do anything if Obama had done the right thing. ALPA needs to be able to communicate to congress and the administration more effectively.

True story. I think he got shot down in an interview and this is his little way to act out on his bitterness. Hate on.

Hard to hate when UA’s 2nd year FO rate is higher than our 20 year maxed out Captain pay rate at Skyw. His critisism doesn’t have much ground to stand on.

ALPA is afraid of competition and rightfully so. But ALPA lost the NAI fight. This will affect all our careers, but mostly the major pilots. How can airlines like NAI staff their fleet? I point the finger at ALPA for not having direct flows to the majors for all ALPA regional pilots. Mainline has turned down many decent pilots throughout the years. Is it fair that these pilots can’t advance their careers and fly larger aircraft for a discount airline? Or, should ALPA pilots demand that the regional rejects be stuck flying an RJ for the rest of their lives? Even if the RJ pilots don’t fly for NAI, they are going to Frontier and Spirit; which may pressure mainline wages in the future. ALPA failed at protecting RJ pilots and their career advancement. ALPA deserved to lose the NAI fight.

I’ve never failed an interview at any airline or company. I have more flying experience than you and most mainline pilots. I can get hired at any airline I want. But, I’m financially well off and even if United offer me a job, I could not accept it based on my schedule and vacation. I value time off.

If you don’t understand the criticism, you must have little aviation/airline experience. Not a surprise, United likes to hire young and inexperienced pilots...ha!
