CAL: mandatory for international (not Central America) always.
Mandatory Oct 15 to April 15 for everyone.
Optional April 15 to Oct 15 domestic and Central America.

New "United" policy? To be determined. My guess: the CAL policy. Why? Because the company bought 12,000 hats. If it was going to be optional, it would have been optional when ordering the new uniform.

Who cares if the company bought them. I'm not wearing it.

The wide stripes make us look like the guys at the curb that check luggage. No wonder CAL pilots wear their hats. (Oh wait, the luggage guys wear the same hat!)

Me either. Especially because the only choice for the cover was the type for elongated skulls and not round ones...

That type would give me too severe of a headache to be able to operate...

He should send it wrapped with the FOM page that says hats are optional!;)
The new VP of Flight ops Howard A. Was the architect of that change for the sUAL side a few years ago.
