Will clear a few things up for filion's sake. Yes, been in the industry long enough now; was waiting on a class date with NWA when 9/11 happened - that job offer was soon retracted. Never was furloughed, made the decision to leave before that happened. Never worked the regionals. Don't spend too much time posting comments anywhere, or defending anyone or anything, in particular. Emirates worked for us but it was never the long-term plan, we were in Dubai seven years longer than we hoped we'd be. In those seven years the company changed for the worse. At the end of the day it's business, plain and simple. All carriers will do what they need to in order to survive, as will each of us.
