(CNN Business) A top executive at United Airlines is telling employees
to consider leaving the company voluntarily as it grapples with the
consequences of the coronavirus pandemic.
In a memo to some United Airlines staffers, which was obtained by CNN
Business, Greg Hart — the company's chief operations officer — said the
airline will need to "right size" its workforce.

The problem will be what you call "decent prices". In spite of 300%
inflation. the "regulated" plane fare in 1977 was far more than what
you can get economy coach for now.
If you can't afford 1st class now, you couldn't afford "regulated"
coach.

It's not a matter of afford...it is a matter of not willing to be robbed
for a slightly larger seat, the same crappy little uncleaned restrooms,
and a $3.00 first class airline meal. Last time I checked, it was $900
more for "first class" trip to San Francisco.

My "Y" fare to San Francisco from Dulles was $498 in 1974. That would
be about $2600 now with inflation. When we flew to SFO for our
California trip in 2009, our first class tickets were about $1300 each
and flying from Ft Myers is more expensive than flying from DC.

BTW without regulation, they would not have even flown the plane I
went out there on. It was a 747 with a piano bar and about 35
passengers.

I don't think I've ever been on a 747. I suspect there are very few
flights out of National with that plane. To easily get on a 747 for a
flight out of this area. I'd think you'd have to go out to Dulles. That
is two to three hours from here on the Beltway and I-66. No thanks.

It was really the non-stop to SFO at the time other than going to BWI
and that was no picnic either. They didn't fly any long haul planes
out of DCA. If you were going to California, you were changing planes
somewhere in the midwest, probably ORD or MSP. On American it was
Chicago.

Ahh, BWI. For some reason, despite the amount of traffic it handles, it
is serious understaffed at the gates and has few decent restaurants to
occupy yourself while waiting for a late plane. Parking is also a pain
in the ass.

Generally speaking, we have lots of really crappy airports.
