Default Tis the season. SRM

"Senior Manning opportunities may be available on Dec 6th & 7th, for 737 Captains in all Bases except Guam. If interested, call Crew Scheduling and let them know. In the event we get to the point junior manning is necessary, you will be in the first group to be called and voluntarily offered such a trip at premium pay."

50 unfilled 737 EWR FO positions up for bid, yet no Captain bids. And they wonder why they are short?

Yup. But UAL staffs (in theory) for the peak months and COLAS are not for those months. Why pay pilots to sit at home when they will do it for free?

Yeah, that's against UAL's culture.

Making 1.5 times your pay makes you a bad guy.

At SWA, it makes you normal (and smart).

Ever wonder why Southwest does so well? It's because the pilots don't see the company as the enemy. They understand that "helping" the company be successful in turn makes everyone prosper.

The fact that many of our "unionists" try to derail the operation at every opportunity to feel like they're saving the profession is what's wrong at UAL. I'm amazed that we are able to stay in business.

Now during negotiations....everything changes!!! No helping then!

It's misleading. They offered one for Jan and then awarded partial month leaves to about 15 pilots total.

Just because they offer them, doesn't mean they award them.

"We are accepting requests for COLA in all categories for February, March and April 2014. Leaves in the 747, 787 and 777 fleets will be very limited. Leaves in the 76T, 756, 320 and 737 fleets will be available but limited and not all categories will have availability in all months.

Leaves will be granted for up to three months in seniority order by category. Leaves longer than 3 months will be considered on an individual basis, please contact your domicile for information."
