Default Permanently reduce our cost structure by $2b
In the latest earnings release, UA has stated they want to reduce their cost structure by $2 billion in the next year. Wonder what ideas Kirby has to accomplish that goal!!!!!

Wasn't this related to another stated round of early retirement incentives for various employee groups?

If it wasn’t for Mako and his fishing pictures I’d have tuned in and dropped out a long time ago.
