I have a few questions: 1) Do you get to choose what cert you want to work on? 2) as a Shuttle pilot, do you fly united and delta flights, or just one.3) And do you get both delta and united travel benefits or just one or the other. 4) How long are people is reserve typically on the Shuttle side?
Thanks

2) You fly both united and delta

3) you get both united and delta travel, although I wouldn't call united travel a benefit (expensive and low priority)

4) right now there are February 12 hires on reserve close to holding a line in Indianapolis

There are April 25th hires in CMH holding a line next month. The united benefits are not expensive anymore. I guess the used to be before the merger. Free in coach and a small charge for first or buisiness.

Isn't it a $20 charge per leg in coach and $50 per leg in first + taxes for both? Is it really free now? And how do you know how much for first?

I guess it used to be. Go list for a flight now, if it's coach it's free and if it's first it'll tell you how much.

Coach is NOT FREE!!! We've been seeing money out of our checks recently as UAL decided to "catch up" on non-rev adventures. It says $0.00 on the website, but the company will still yank the $20 per segment out of your check.

Travel privileges?

Turn left 20 degrees and rejoin the airway; report established...

What is the word, if any, on the release from mediation.
