Happy #NavyDay! ⚓ @FedEx’s Robert Santovasi says his Navy career taught him the importance of “safety, security and performance of duties,” which still helps him today. U.S. airlines are proud to employ 50,000+ service members and veterans. ✈️🇺🇸 #America250 #RedFlightAndBlue

After 25 years of military service, Ryan J. said his transition to civilian aviation was made possible in part through @United's Military Pilot Program (UMPP), which helped him take the next step in his aviation career.

"UMPP is built with an appreciation for the experience and perspective that military pilots have to offer at United and provides veterans an opportunity to plan their exit from the military in a way that delivers a smooth transition to civilian life..." Jackson said.

This would bring YOU: ✅ Modern tech for air traffic controllers   ✅ Safer skies, updating airports & towers ✅ Better travel experience, bringing shorter tarmac waits, fewer flight delays and smoother trips It’s time to upgrade our skies… now I want to take you Inside the Room👇
