CAL pilots win 50+ seat scope ruling

[lookin4better]

Lots of little kids are sad today because they cant fly 50+ seats for CAL.

Oh well, too bad for them. They'll have to keep flying 135 until they get 1500 hours and an ATP anyway.

You don't actually believe it's the "little kids" crying, do you?

So it stays as is at the CAL hubs until ratification of a JCBA at CAL/UAL, correct?

That's my interpretation, now we'll just have to see what Jeff's interpretation is.

Just curious, do the flights stop immediately or is UAL/CAL given a grace period to phase the advertised flights out, say a month or so?

Seems like there will be some pissed off pax that have booked on these flights already and will be told by UAL, "sorry, no can do".

Thanks for the answer in advance.

Its good to hear that the legal letter of our CBA's are being supported. My hats off to the CAL MEC for its professionalism in seeing this through. Cheers!

Not really true. Our internal message boards are ripe with praise and joy for the CO. Pilots. Give a little credit.

There are always the VOCAL pot-stirrer 10% at the regionals.

Nobody I know wants 70 seat jets flying at CO unless CO pilots are flying them.

my guess is that UA will remove the CAL code and will continue to operate the flights as United
