Because when this third round of aid passes the gubment will have ginned up the airlines with over $50B in total.

That’ll turn pretty much any industry around from zero to hero.

Because WARN letters and furlough notices are functions of federal law as well as the UPA. Neither means furloughs will actually happen. In this case, more government money for no layoffs through September 30th. Would have been great if airlines had received the full amount from CARES, CARES 2.0 and CARES USB-C a year ago to provide stability vs. uncertainty on a rolling basis.

It will be interesting! I had the same thought. :cool:

Still a no voter. You should be thanking the US taxpayer, not ALPA or mgmt.

Look at the bright side ... you work for an IT company with wings

Makes the 911 airline support seem trivial, see how much the Gov could have saved if UAL had been denied....oh wait...

If one is on LTD during a vacancy bid and is showing on the snapshots can one assume they will be awarded the position upon return? Thanks.

Yup. Sometimes after some REDOC.
