Together with your colleagues, Flight Ops, ALPA, HR and our United Express team, we’ve designed a program that offers more entry points, more development opportunities and a quicker and more transparent path to United, which will be industry leading. It’s a program designed to ensure we bring the highest quality talent in the marketplace to United flight decks versus our competitors.
Nice job keeping the secret, secret! There is always some truth to every rumor, and my guess is this new program has something to do with Compass getting some type of preferential interview, not United buying them.

It’s doesn’t prohibit like everyone says I believe it says if they own a majority of another airline then that airline must use UA FAs, which isn’t going to happen. They own or control the people that own large shares or ManaAir(Expressjet) and commute air. It’s all a shell game.

I doubt Mesa is toast. In looking at latest money flow, investors this last week have upped their investment in MESA. A few Funds have jumped on so maybe it’s the M100’s or maybe other news generating a positive outlook? Maybe Compass is toast.

UA has Mesa included in the new CPP program makes me doubt they would include us if we are about to lose 60-80 airplanes in the next 12 months.
