For the most part. It does depend on how you have your standing bid. It seems to be becoming the norm in regionals.

My plan B was a lateral to Envoy. Would have been my 3rd regional. Fortunately, it didn't come to that.

My advice, update your pilotcredentials and airlineapps after every sequence. And network as much as you can. Keep in touch with buddies that have moved on.

Best of luck Blackhawk

Where did you end up?

Did you miscalculate how close the finish line was?

Negotiations dragging out?

Parties not getting along?

Give us a general, vague sense of what’s going on.

It’s UAL. What more needs to be said?

I’ve heard that Chip Childs is the one holding things up.

Wouldn’t surprise me either. There are just so many people who could gum up the works I really don’t see it happening. The “UAL is buying us” rumor has been there for years.
