I only got $60~ change.... But I didn't pay into the DAL MEC during most of the years that a surplus was generated(and apparently you didn't either).
That guy was a member in an MEC that continually stayed under budget (and had 24J to help take stress off the MEC "checking account").
Now ALL the DL pilots have that same MEC structure with a continued desire to operate well under budget. The payout for 2014 excesses (should your reps vote to authorize a refund) will probably average around $250-350. Additionally dues are going down in 2014, and hopefully will be reduced yet again at the next BOD meeting.
