Are the pilots sent home being brought back? I hope they are getting extra pay.

How about leasing employees?

What if United could lease eligible employees from JetBlue, e.g.?

I have always respected pilots. They aren’t idiots, or rubes. This is stunning news, if people think about it.

The Pilots Union should demand paper from the airline saying that no vaccine will ever be required.

United and the pilots โ€™union, the Air Line Pilots Association, reached an agreement for higher pay to cover open trips ...

So maybe not all trips. But triple time and a half, at the top of the pilots union scale is some serious coin before retirement.

Where do I sign up?

And this cost will be passed onto the customer or even better, government will cover it with taxpayer money.

They are only allowed to work so many hours straight, then are required to take time off in-between.

I spent 26-1/2 years as a United pilot. if I were still working I’d tell management to stick the money you know where OR, better yet - use it to get the Gummn’t off our backs.
