The latest news in the United Airlines saga is that United has come to an agreement with its union - roughly 800 jobs will be kept, which were originally attended for outsourcing to outside vendors.

The Machinists union has publicly accepted these 'reasonable adjustments', which have come after weeks of negotiation with United.
