53%? Apparently cats CAN be herded. And, their owners.

Once the mechanics ratify, we will be back to "elevated" contracts with all employee groups. UAL history points to disaster being just around the corner given this condition.

LOL.

12,000 pilots. 100,000 employees. 700 aircraft and growing. Five years after the merger, we have recreated lUAL in 2001, without the help of Rono or Rakeesh.

Gave them the absolute minimum they needed to get it passed.

Glad to see that we can move forward...

Just curious, anybody know how many L-UAL FA's there were and how many L-CAL? Sounds like it went right down legacy lines.

Where have I seen that before . . .

I'm ecstatic they finally got a contract, but I must admit I'm nervous about the crew interactions.

Yeah 53% like it, but 47% are not going to be immediately happy that it passed.

Uhmmmm,

They better start doing some serious hiring! At the moment they are cleaning out the pool with no additional new hires due to "softening" revenues.
