And they've done it without Sabre or a second bunkie for OE flights. Whew- glad we are not them.

United Continental Holdings (UAL), which operates United Airlines, reported a diluted EPS in 2014 that was higher than Delta Air Lines’ (DAL) $0.78, JetBlue Airways’ (JBLU) $1.19, and Southwest Airlines’ (LUV) $1.64. Meanwhile, its diluted EPS was lower than American Airlines’ (AAL) $3.93 and Alaska Air Group’s (ALK) $4.42.

Wall Street analysts’ estimate for 1Q15 suggest that United will continue to perform well in 2015:

revenue – $8,635 million, slightly lower than in 1Q14
operating profit – $695.8 million
net profit –$454.8 million
EPS – $1.17

In contrast, United reported a loss in 1Q14.

My point is the sky isn't falling, but if we want to be paid like Delta we need to perform like them.

UCH.

I'm not a math major so I can't begin to decrypt our profit sharing formula to figure out if ours was comparable to theirs either. According to my OET training we should start printing money ala Delta (sarcastically optimistic). Add profit sharing to the list of bullet items for the next contract.
