United LHR
I'm afraid that the rumour of United hiring in London is just that. My partner had been with United since they opened the LHR base after the demise of Pan Am. There are plans to close the Paris base early next year (although as we all know this could chnage in a heart beat!). All of the Paris based flight attendants will be offered the opportunity to transfer to LHR. There is also a list as long as your arm for flight attendants that are waiting to transfer into LHR from US bases. The transfers have not been open for years now. All staff on involuntary furlough are back at UAL in London, and only those on voluntary furlough are still out.
I would agree with a previous poster that the hiring is likely to be in the US for US bases.
Hope this helps a little.
