Admittedly, at the time I was pretty clueless, because dammit, I was a proud double breasted van admiral. But, after learning more and more about the giveaways, I'm pretty shocked.
Their sick bank, the 75 hr. min for reserve, and the 150% pay for over 80 were all things I would have liked to have seen come over to Delta's contract! I too was amazed at some of the stuff we didn't bring over from the NW contract. At least they (NW) finally got our pay straightened out so we're not getting a HUGE check on the 15th and a tiny one on the 30th.
Another thing I'd like to see here that they had; monthly AE bids with a real training timeline. I've never liked the way Delta does AE's....when ever they feel like it, and trains you...when ever they feel like it!
