BTW, any 'scheme' that allows me to acquire the all weather jacket instead of the gestapo trench coat without cost is welcome advice.
At the very top once you login there's a thing saying something along the lines of what's included.
Like one jacket, two pants, six shirts etc.
You need to pick the whole "matched armor" set. Select size, code with a tiny shopping cart symbol and a plus sign appears, click that.
Keep adding stuff until the warning message in the shopping cart goes away (the one about having to pick everything per the list).
Tricky part - select pants with proper waist, update qty to two. Then add alterations to proper inseam. Update qty to two.
Once full set is complete, proceed to checkout, payment defaults to "company issued".

Now the sad part - the cost options have changed. When I ordered from TH, I was able to just grab the all weather coat and skip the trench.
At MH you are offered either a shorter wool coat (looks fancy. Like ivy league type of a BS kinda fancy. I picked that) or a longer (knee long looks like) all weather coat.
So there's that. New belt looks very generic. Crew Outfitters kinda generic.
Button up cardigan is like $45

I knew about the change in companies but didn't realize the uniform was fundamentally changing. Guess I'll order the whole shebang.

[QUOTE=BigZ;2604978]Then add alterations to proper inseam./QUOTE]

Don’t forget that the company will reimburse alterations. While it may seem convenient to have the pants shipped already altered, you’re better off going to a real tailor. Especially since you’ll need to have the blazer altered anyway.

Is there a way to list yourself on standby for a United flight prior to the day? I've always just gone up to the gate, but now this Summer time commute is starting to get tough. I tried to do it through myIDtravel but it wanted to charge me $53! Thanks

No. Just list at the gate 1hr. prior. Use the commuter policy if you must or just go above and beyond and give yourself extra flights if you really need the money. I see this practice at mainline more because they are compensated MUCH better for there trips

So I have recurrent this month. Everyone I talk to says that recurrent was 4 days long for them excluding the travel day (TD). On my quicktrade I 6 days for recurrent excluding the two TD's on either end. It shows CG, CG, TN, TN, RF, RF.
CG and TN are ground and sim, but what's RF for?
