About LinkBacksI cannot remember exactly but I think that in the case of UA/CO they end up with a weird mix of procedures.
I am wondering how the HP retirees board as nonrev on US flight, what position they get on the priority list?

I am interested in how soon the AA and US non rev system will mesh after the "Official" announcement - so both airline employees and their pass riders can fly on either AA or US.
How long did it take DL and NW to mesh their systems so both airline employees and their pass riders could fly on either DL or NW?
This process was fairly quick(DL/NW) with single seniority merged within 6-9 months based on date of hire. So in certain stations, (PHL,PIT,DFW,ORD) as the process plays out, some might have to move. I have a friend in LAS who is AA and has 26 yrs. and if I put him in with my US Air friends there he would be right in the middle with the lowest seniority at 11. Safe for now. The most senior below wing in that station for US is 45 yrs. (geez) and AA 36yrs. Likely we will see voluntary furloughs is certain stations (PHX,PIT,PHL) asuming staffing needs to facilitate the operation. Some people will not move while others have been through several mergers(America West/PSA-US/Piedmont-AA) and will adjust.

Update, just got word from AA friends system wide. Transfer list has posted in HNL, TUL, BDL and PHX so there has already been discussions prior to today..

No mention of retiree travel, in fact the only mention of non-rev travel was this short statement.
“Each carrier’s employees will receive reciprocal travel privileges as quickly as possible”.
Personally I hope we stay with FCFS “time of check-in”;
Zedman you do remember TWA and “heavily reduced seniority"

I hope so, yes I did as I noticed and thought about the position of the TWR..
I know this may not really go to the front-line right away, but if anyone happens to know which reservations system they'll go with (Sabre or SHARES) I'd love to know - maybe a PM so I for sure see it?
I would have assumed Sabre, but if the US executives are sticking around, I could be quite wrong.

From what I have read it will be sabre because US having less employees it will be less amount of people to train. But of course we never know...

Thanks zedman! It does have the chance to very indirectly affect us at UA (if they do go to Sabre, the owner of SHARES loses its second largest customer by quite a long shot. Other than UA, most other airlines on SHARES are very small)
