United: Starfish?

[Typhoon1244]

Anybody know anything about United's alleged new LCC which, according to USA Today, is code-named "Starfish?" I've never heard of it.

Starfish

Actually, the Starfish idea was floated several months ago and subsequently shelved. However, some reports indicate UA is considering it again. Sorry I don't have specifics, but I'm not on the inside anymore.

Actually, they changed the name to Brown Star Airlines. I wonder what those pilots will get paid?

 

[chawbein]

Brown Star? Is that like Brown Eye??

 

[Salty Dog]

Let's skip the more obtuse references and just call it Pucker Airlines...where the pilots get paid s--t.

I could be wrong, but with all the indecision about what they are going to do, I don't think they are going to make it. And with ACA severing ties with UAL, that's just one more problem they have to deal with. It doesn't look good.
