From what I’ve experienced on the line those United FA’s aren’t any better.

I just don’t see the reality of a jb merger when all kirby really wants is some slots at jfk. The expense, time, and mess that a merger would bring isn’t remotely worth it.

As to a potential merger with aa, i’d love to be a fly on the wall if that was ever seriously pitched to the feds. Their reaction would be entertaining.

You sir, are correct. 👍. Being ghetto , unable to speak proper English and tattoos everywhere and say anything in front of pax including cursing, seems to be the norm now. Truly scraping the bottom of the barrel.

I think UA FA is marginally better, but depends on the base. I think UA GAs are world’s better than the AA GAs though.

It's a whole new administration in case you haven't watched the news in a year.

Trump loves big deals. They'll be happy to approve the deal between United and AA as long as they rename the new airline Trump Airlines and have plenty of gold on the new livery.

exactly. People are acting like this a normal justice department. And not our current administration where anything that pleases the king is approved.

Did your therapist have you show on a doll where a Flight Attendant hurt you?
