FWIW, one of the FA's said they are looking at another base but wouldn't say where and I don't know if it depends on more flying or just wishful thinking. At least the unfounded rumors are positives now...

Flight attendant rumors are my favorite.

Normally I agree, but this was about a position that was being considered not at Ord, STL, or IAD and you'll note that I opened with FWIW. I give it about a 20% chance of being true and that's only if there's at least some new flying. Sometimes I think management at the regionals start the rumors just to keep everyone confused and themselves entertained...

As much as I would love to live in Houston. I know my girlfriend won't move there.

How much do you do there vs how much to sustain a base?

Iah is not likely at all. We only do a handful of legs per day from there.

Didn't say it was likely. But it is the only other UAL hub where we have any presence at all.
