2nd SFO-HKG
 
https://m.sfgate.com/travel/article/United-hong-kong-flights-14055623.php


“Starting October 26, United Airlines will add a second daily nonstop between San Francisco and Hong Kong using a Boeing 777-200ER.

With this addition, San Francisco International will soon have a total of seven daily round trips on four different airlines between the two cities: Three per day on Cathay Pacific, two on United and one each on Singapore Air and Hong Kong Airlines.”

I thought we were losing money in HKG? Maybe not? Good sign.

The only people losing money are the pilots who need to hire some poor Philippino woman to satisfy them because they can’t get it in the states.

Not enough gates, not enough capts, way short on F/O's. We can't support this unless they stop flying something else.

Unless they “W” from another base. Is any other base “over staffed”?

Dulles could W that in a heartbeat.

I hear there are some widebody vacancies coming out soon. But it’s just a rumor :D

We need both planes and pilots.

Do we have enough of both?

Might as well just quit now. Dave Fitzgerald says we can’t do it. 🙄
