Will another round of initial emails be sent out to the next most-qualified group of applicants?

Initially, I heard a second round was to be sent before May 31, then August 31, then "there won't be any more emails."

Any insight?

No, just a phone call a few days ago, then the e-mail for the personality assessment.

As a 2007 Lual hire I will only be half way up the combined list in 2026. So 75% is a bit high...

I don't think we will see 90/100 seat airplanes at UA. American used to have them (F-100) and those routes are now flown by CRJ-700's. With 76 seaters now allowed, there won't be a need, plus the larger airframe can be reconfigured overnight to accommodate 88 seats (our next scope battle).

Those pay rates are on the contract for a reason.
