I wish I could fail and make millions.

United Airlines is WALLMART

[hope]

Tilton is a monkey!

Naww, Cargo. UA isn't Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart makes money. UA only burns it.

I wouldn't loan the entire management team at UA the spare change to make a phone call.

All I can say is that I'm glad I'm out of the industry.

Hey Cargo and QA,

Tilton is just a smart person, who uses his team and their political/financial networks to protect himself and gain from it. Nothing stopping others doing the same, look around any industry. It is the same in both industry and commerce or public sectors. If one has integrity and wants to help others, one has to work as a volunteer and not concern about others making profits at the cost of other people's career and lifestyle sacrifices.

Airline industry is also full of many good people, if one chooses to leave the industry because of UA-then one was not suitable to work in the industry anyway.

International ex UA - still wonder why UA is called an international carrier, board members do not have a clue how international businesses operate successfully. If only the Ethics Managers or GT have one to one's with local managers or employees with the Scott N, Kyle B's and J.A's of UA, they will know the truth!! Hey that's office politics and Good Luck if they get away with it.
