Thanks !

I'll pass it along.:cool:

Thanks again for the info. Passed it along and was told that the recommendation option in the addendum section is an option that the company being applied to can turn on or off. Apparently it is no longer an option for United applicants. If anyone knows differently, please let me know as I would like to get a rec in for a buddy.

Thanks !

Tell him to put you down as a reference w your email attached. Airline Apps will send you a link to attach your recommendation.

Thanks !! Will do.

Just curious how junior is San Francisco and can a new hire hold it? If not where would a new hire end up?

Right now, SFO is on the UAL side, but traditionally its a new hire base. So you'd have to come to the UAL side after all the furloughees have been offered positions.

I think any new hires are going to the CAL side.

Rumors of a CAL 737 base in SFO soon.

Yes, rumors of a 737 base in SFO. If that happens, it will make summer of 2000 look like a picnic. A 737 CO base flying UAL flying will be the ultimate Jeffed up attempt at splitting the group.

This needs to wait for the SLI. Out of seniority Capt bids that should go to UAL former guppie pilots would cause a melt down of epic proportion in SFO. Capt Hepner has so far been able to have the company delay the opening, hopefully till the SLI is done.

Of course this is all only rumor.

And yes, SFO has traditionaly been a new hire base because the cost of living is so much higher than most of the other UAL bases. New hires can't afford to live here and many choose to commute.

They had talked about doing IAD as a 737 base at the same time. I inquired about this 2 weeks ago and Gary Waggoner claimed it was 12-24 months away...post-SLI.

:p
Ummm not sure where in the system you fly but this has already happened in ORD and DEN. And on the flip side, IAH.....

SFO is special because??

If you haven't heard we're on the track for an ISL in which case the "flying" belongs to ALL of us.
