You are a 100% CORRECT! And I hope I'm totally wrong (with regards to the Street Captain work around!)

Exactly..
I'm reminded of the RoadShow in Nov 2012 where some of us asked about-
"Field Standby"
"2 pilot flight's over 8hrs"
"763 pay rates"


A good manager/leader looks for ways to solve problems.
Right now they have a major Problem- Unfilled Left Seat vacancies.
They are actively looking for solutions as this problem can and WILL get worse without a new ILC23 soon~

There it is...you add those bases and you solve two problems. 1) Ramp space for the growth of 350+ airframes 2) Plenty of commuters that won't commute to rsv as a NB CA but will take the pay bump and live in base. We have a ton of commuters in those cities.

The number of new captains induced by mco/las was quite underwhelming

I’ve seen it mentioned before a specific amount of pilots with Florida zip codes…is there any way to look that up or was that communicated from the union or company?

Or was it just APC hearsay

the company commented in their new base message on how many Florida and Vegas commuters we have at United

The BOD would probably give Kirby a bonus for getting it done last. Every day that passes without an agreement is a discount for UAL.

Pilot services 40% off!

Agree. The schedule is being covered and we are staffed for summer.
Clearly management is slow rolling negotiations to last as long as possible.

Every month nearly 300 pilots come off probation the pilots are here to fill the CA slots they just need to keep putting the bids out.

I track this stuff we have not had a decline in the number of Active CAs on property since the COVID displacements.
