COInsider. Thanks for the reply. I know you are the CO/UA equivalent of the marines...the tip of the spear so to speak.
That said, please allow me to say that I find the progress made to date to be disappointing, especially as there are many of us that are making plans for next year and beyond. Committing to CO/UA now not knowing what the merged program will really look like until sometime in 2011 is a big leap of faith CO/UA are asking us to make.
For me specifically, the most pressing items to get clarification on are whether E+ will be kept and introduced fleet-wide, what upgrade priority is going to be like (like current MP or current OP) and whether or not the new UA will continue to practice Starnet blocking.
Not having answers to those three items makes it impossible for me to commit to the new UA past 50k miles next year that I can and will blow through with two personal trips to Asia and Europe and a couple of business trips.
Sincerely. AAExPlat.
