Re: WN Captain Gives Shirt to Lewd Woman

Re: UA will close FA bases in NRT, HKG, FRA

We do not have seasonal bases. Once they’re open, it’s a base. They operate year-round. Also known as a satellite base, meaning the base management comes from a bigger base. Why call it a satellite base then? A base is a base meaning PHX as a base would be no different than BOS for Flight Attendant...

Re: UA will close FA bases in NRT, HKG, FRA

Why call it a satellite base then? A base is a base meaning PHX as a base would be no different than BOS for Flight Attendants. It's confusing. That’s just the terminology used within the company. Example, MCO and FLL are satellites of EWR meaning EWR management oversees what happens there, but tri...

Re: UA will close FA bases in NRT, HKG, FRA

That's actually a lot of F/A's and really sad considering how much they built out US seasonal satellite bases at MCO / FLL / SAN / AUS / TPA / SEA last year. I'm assuming it's because these bases have super senior F/A's with a high rate of pay and probably a lack of flying hours since COVID-19 and ...

Re: UA will close FA bases in NRT, HKG, FRA

Current FA populations for these base locations: FRA - 229 HKG - 320 NRT - 364 That's actually a lot of F/A's and really sad considering how much they built out US seasonal satellite bases at MCO / FLL / SAN / AUS / TPA / SEA last year.

Re: UA will close FA bases in NRT, HKG, FRA

1 or 2 years ago I was considering to apply for the FRA base but the requirement was to have a either US citizenship or a greencard so I assume all the employees would have at least a greencard and be allowed to relocate to the US but I doubt anyone would consider this in the current situation.

Re: United Closing Flight Attendant Tokyo Hub

Re: UA will close FA bases in NRT, HKG, FRA

Bad for the foreign crews, but good for the U.S. based FAs who will now get to fly more of these routes. If it helps save more U.S. jobs overall, great news. Not for the customer!!! The foreign crews were much more professional and service oriented than the U.S. based crews. UA can't compete agains...

Re: UA will close FA bases in NRT, HKG, FRA

Some of you all are so sad on this thread and it elucidates how many of the lot of you don't understand how foreign bases/crew scheduling/resources function. Over the past few years, there were only a few pairings (crew schedules) that were operated solely by foreign based crews--quite often there ...

Re: Senior FA sues DL for wrongful termination

Overtime for the airlines is different from most other companies. The equivalent of overtime for the airlines is when you're flying time goes longer than scheduled flight time and you are paid for the greater. We have flights that last longer than 8 hours and we are not paid any different over those...

Re: Why no US-Sapporo flights?

When CO first got delivery of the 777, I was fortunate to be on the team of flight attendants who did the certification and the proving run for the company. The proving run was to have been IAH-EWR-NRT-HNL-LAX-IAH. It ended up being IAH-EWR-CTS-EWR-IAH. The one nonstop to CTS we did from the US

I worked the NRT-EWR flight on day one for Polaris and was VERY excited, as was my crew and customers.

The feedback was excellent and very posit...
