29palms -- Just an FYI, NOT everyone at CO voted the way you say......... it's not a good idea to use "everyone" unless you can prove it, and in this case, you can't. There are written proven statements from CO employees, both active and retired who disapprove of this.

Thank you for that info. I am way too "young" to remember that!

Point is, for more years than you've been alive UA actives and retirees have boarded their flights by seniority, not status, and those benefits were waiting for them at retirement. The BP6 came at a point where the company needed to hold on to quality employees, promising them an extra...

This is from someone under the bus, and a warning to all you NOT under the bus! 1. There's a petition at change.org; subject: Smisek asking that benefits be returned to retirees. (seniority being determining factor on all NRSA). Retiree benefits have been in place for generations. Some...

Hello. I read your comment about retirees being visible at airports, etc. A couple weeks ago between 75 and 95 gathered to rally at SFO. Who knows where else they will show up!

I have to disagree. Unless using one of their 8 one way vacation passes, United retirees will board AFTER active employees. The "super priority afforded retirees with 25 years or more" has been done away with; however, with the new plan, all retirees will board after active employees, and...

My observation -- it wasn't the obese people with the shortest shorts coming off an aircraft, wearing sandal thongs and very skimpy and casual tank tops; or in winter, dirty, sloppy sweat suits that look like sleeping wear, or jeans with more holes than fabric. I consider that sloppy; and it...

I recall one time I had to go down to see why flight wasn't boarding. Went onboard to see and captain said he needed a few minutes. So I waited on the jetbridge. He then put the f/a through a test of the different signals he used and wanted to be sure they all knew them. I won't forget the...

I received this via email this afternoon....... A local briefing announced Friday, that due to the current financially distressed economy and low call volumes United will terminate the employment of 31 -DTWRR, 4-CHIRR probationary employees and 125-offshore employees. In addition, 16 HNLRR...
