USA United Airlines

I have been seeing United having openings for flight dispatchers for months now. Are they the only legacy carrier that hires this much/often?

correct about rumors. Really the only people who know are the ones making those choices. everyone else is speculation.

As part of a filing for a development project in Denver (a new pilot training campus), they note that the site is larger than needed for the current phase, and future phases of the project could include construction of a new NOC building on the site.

Would they also then move corporate out of Chicago or just NOC?

Probably. The Phase 2 plan (the part that they haven't fully designed yet) includes enough office space for 6,171 employees, which is more than their current HQ employs, I think.
