Now it’s a race to see who will have an industry last contract. The only insult to add to injury would be an industry lagging and last contract which seems highly likely at this point. Smdh

Only if the pilot group LETS that happen.

Why would they be so afraid to reject it if it comes back subpar? It’s pretty easy to see that DAL is the absolute floor.

And NO, I’m not fearful of this “recession “ so many keep saying is coming. I’ve heard that since 2016

I figure that by the time we get to vote on a new contract, I’ll be eligible to vote. If it isn’t better than DAL, it’s a no. I give no cares about a recession, I’ll strike until the only thing left is the golden parachutes the douchey executives keep for themselves. Union speaks for me.

Also, this thread is dumb.

Without you, how would United survive? I'm sure you'll get a cookie or a big bonus in your Christmas stocking this year.
I hear there's a big "TUMI of the month club" benefit that's being added into an eventual contract next year.

Good thing we don't have a threat of an actual strike right now, I can't imagine the scabs a strike would create here at this point in time.
how about every instructor amd LCA, far more damage then picking up open time. FyI, pilot picks up open time costs the company money unless they have zero reserves.

United doesn't think you deserve a seat at the table, they won't replace BQ making UA the only major airline without a pilot in senior management
United's CEO said a contract would take 2 weeks...it's been over 4 years since your contract became amendable, you should be negotiating the follow up to the contract that started in 2020, you are an entire contract behind
United's latest proposal falls short of industry matching in a number of sections, the only section that is likely to be industry leading is scope, which was fought for and won years ago. It's not industry leading if you already have it

Market forces will force United into an industry lagging/matching contract but remember when this is all over how UA treated you and if you are thinking about going to UA is that the place you want your future to be? If you have been at UA for under a couple of years, consider your options, because this won't be the last time UA treats it's pilots this way...
Same as it ever was.... Same as it ever was.... this is not my beautiful house.... this is not my beautiful wife.

You keep telling yourself that.

The examples you are giving are the exact same thing.


Keep picking up overtime for all events, line or TK..

Why are 99% of the threads pure ignorance? I guess this forum (and others) are just outlets for uninformed whining. Same as always....throw the hope for some money on the table and watch the pilots thrash about fighting each other☹️. At least in the past we waited until there was real money on the ground. Now? Just the idea of money makes us stupid.

how much do they pay a reserve to fly??? Zero. Line holder picks dame trip up he gets paid his hourly rate. Costs company money picking up trips when there is reserve coverage.
