You could buy us and have both! And maybe spruce up our product a bit while you're at it.
That'd be a whole lotta Airbuses to park.

Morbid curiosity. Upgrade times?

I agree it's unlikely, but without some shorter stage lengths there are few ways to solve the problem.

I thought Jet Blue was going to acquire AA and staple us to the bottom of the seniority list?

Displaced... again.
I heard it was the other way around.
But maybe I'm thinking of 2014.
(All that being said, nothing would surprise me anymore in this crazy industry, especially when it comes to consolidation.)

I still owe Max a steak dinner for the sin of suggesting that two airlines with low fleet commonality would merge.

Year after year, I'm trying to earn enough "Doug points" to upgrade this to Mortons, or Ruth Chris. In ten years, I'll cash in all my points. Lol.

Yes, Yes, and Yes.
Also, since the bids cover such a long period of time, if you wish to upgrade in the next 2 years you need to lock it in now.
I think having control of one’s schedule is a big deal. So if you are a senior FO you may not want to give that up, I know I don’t.
If you are already junior and flying the worst trips, might as well get paid more.

Whats that line about, they never stopped to think if the should, even though they could?
Great for seniority, but some people need to some percolation time in the right seat before scooting overt the left...

Just had this discussion with my FO earlier today. Regardless whether you have "the right stuff" to be a good, safe Captain, because some people don't, a little bit of experience comes in handy when the chips are down and you're running low on ideas.

Um, are people getting hired at United without a little experience?

Yes? They’re hiring people with only CFI experience aren’t they?

I don’t think anyone that gets hired at united needs more than the year required to upgrade.
