Why would c5 have a more significant amount of delays then XYZ? You guys answer like it's all daddy United's fault why your numbers are so poor.
The anger is strong in this one....

He's just bitter that we are flying his planes and his overall seniority percentage is going the wrong way.

More than 50. A little bit more than 15% of the current seniority list are people that were hired this year.

9 of those that were hired this year are already CA's on the dash including the 4 from April.

Not upset just wondering why your numbers are so poor and it's kind of laughable how you guys try to justify them saying united delays you more than anyone else

You must be upset if you can't accept a perfectly reasonable explanation.. You do understand what a GDP is and how slots are allotted, correct?

Let me ask you this. If 60% of your airline's flights went through EWR, and EWR issues a GDP that delays all your flights by 2 or 3 hours, how would your airline's on-time performance numbers look? Please explain how you would catch up from behind on your next EWR turn, after the GDP put you 3 hours behind the first time around.

We certainly can't push "on time" then make the passengers sit for 2 hours on tiny hot airplanes, just so we can brag on other airlines' threads about our performance numbers.. But we are open to other suggestions.

Would u even admit having any bitterness? U try to hide it but its written all over ur post without u typing it. Why the anger? Are you planning to be a lifer an XJT? if not, wats the big deal? Anyway, it would be interesting to give us ur take on Saucy Dingo's question.

That is a positive as well as a negative. We have movement at C5. It is better than a pilot group that has a net gain, but no one is leaving. When we have no one leaving and still hiring, we end up with 10 year upgrades. I am very glad to see that many new hires from 2017 on the bottom of the list.

We are at least still getting people in the door. Just not enough to cover our attrition.
