This is the third time in less than a year that the company has tried to get reliable FDP extensions and the second time they have tried to fix their FRMS problem in nine months. They also got FRMS carte blanc from the LCAL F/As in return for profit sharing a few months ago, and they have the 787s that can profitably service these lucrative point to point international markets. But, "This corporation will not put it back on the table for several years."

Unionism. You mean like the widebody Captain with less than 2 yrs left who said he's voting against it because the whole contract needs to be fixed?

I just didn't want any new hires to think they had furlough protection based on your misstatement (aka mostly right).

Just to clarify, there is absolutely NOT a no-furlough clause in the TA (or the UPA).
UA can furlough all they want as long as the 76 seat RJs have 6 seats removed. Would it make UA think twice? Perhaps. But in a downturn demand is probably reduced anyway.
All the TA does is change the "trigger" to all pilots currently on the list and not just the pilots on the list at the time of the UPA.
Is this an improvement? Yes.
Is this a no-furlough clause? No.
Carry on.

They mean nothing.
