And so, now, I am United Airlines.
I will miss the CO name, but I'm excited about our future at United.

Not quite. Maybe October 1 (after DOT and shareholder approval) you will be United. Sad to see CO going.

I agree, I will miss CO just like I miss TWA but as long as I have a job at United who cares!

The next question is, will you have a job at CLE?

I have a bad feeling about CLE, but I hope to at least be employed somewhere by UA. CLT would be nice!

Me? Yes, I will. I have 23 years with CO, so I'm not worried about myself. I still am of the belief that United is going to do like Delta, and see how it's current hub alignment plays out before making any decisions to close anything. I do think you'll see reallocation of aircraft-like the 763's going to EWR and the 757's going to IAD, and some Airbuses and 170's in CLE, but I do think they want to see what they have first, instead of a knee-jerk reaction.
And, I'm still of the belief that even if CLE is eventualy de-hubbed, you'll see somewhere around 100 flights a day even after that fact.

I agree with Falcon84. There won't be any sudden closings or major shifts. And I also agree that CLE will be downgraded over time, but that could be years. And Smisek mentioned that they will switch the 757 and 763's between EWR and IAD, makes sense...
