Regional wages, like the price of gas and groceries and building materials, are unsustainable and unreasonable. It would be irresponsible of us to demand such an unsustainable and unreasonable wage increase. 50%-100% is just too damn high. We may need to strike.in the future, but it should be for something reasonable like 5%, not some crazy increase like everything else. Everything has gone crazy now and you guys just want to make it worse. Let cool heads prevail.

Best UA FO path: UAX or National (Spirit)???
Hello All-
I'm a 2000 hr, ATP ME private pilot with multiple regional airline offers. I am older than most FO candidates (early 50s). I am trying to decide on the best path to realize my life-long dream of flying for United Airlines. Does anybody know what percentage of new, UA FO hiring comes from the following?
1) United Express carriers (via Aviate)
2) National carriers (i.e., Spirit/Jet Blue)
3) Non-United Express regional carriers
Also - can you recommend the regional that you think is best for making it to United in the shortest amount of time? I know that there are a lot of moving pieces these days with the regionals/comp structures/legacy contracts being cancelled or moved.
I would really appreciate any wisdom/insight regarding the current market.
Thank you VERY much-

UA ALPA doesn’t have to strike, they can just say no to every lowball offer until next year and Kirby will have to park the Max 10, 321 Neo and XLR and 350s UA takes delivery of if pay scales for them don’t exist in the contract. It seems to have worked for Delta in the past…

Are you for real, or does my internet snark-meter need recalibration?
