Try the northeast! I bet SKYW couldn't handle a month in Philly!

Yeah yeah.................we heard that about ORD too before we were there. Wait. How long have we been in ORD? Yeah that's what I thought........

Philly is the city of brotherly love. How hard can it be?

P.S. Whine all you want about ORD, the penality box rocks to the tune of 3-4 hrs a month, flight pay, not that wimpy per-diem.

Ya, i'll give you that, but whining about how the weather is TOO good is MUCH MUCH MUCH better than bitching about cold, snow and fallin on your ass cuz you slipped on some glycol........

p.s. can't remember where i saw it, but I'll use it shamelessly here.....I'd much rather screw my way around than suck and blow my way through life...

If it matters so much maybe you guys could quit giving us swaps that make us late so often?!!!!

Yeah it matters. Unfortunately the turn times in the hubs getting
cut and losing gates in SFO doesn't translate into fewer airplanes
needing to be into maint at night. United thinks we can operate
the same number of flights with fewer airplanes by cutting turn
times. We've seen what a goat rope that is in SFO and LAX.
LAX is going to "de-peak" more in a month or two and DEN is
going to that in May. Trust me, we don't like it anymore than
you do because it ties our hands a lot of time to untangle things
on a bad day.

The alternative to swapping is to ferry airplanes to a base at
the end of your shift or scheduling crews to get their airplanes
at or after departure time and building delays into the schedule.
