They give you a space available on Delta voucher to get to training. It should be with your training packet. I remember when I was going to training and I tried to use that thing. For some reason that day was completely overbooked and I didn't know that till I got to the airport. After being there and not getting on 4 flights to Atlanta I decided to bite the bullet and buy a ticket on Airtran just to make sure I got there. I needed to be there on a Monday and I was trying to leave on a Sunday and when I look back on it I would have tried to head down on Saturday and just pay for the hotel as it would have been cheaper than the ticket. The voucher lets you travel 3 days before or three days after the date of training.

When I was in training I guess it was a little different than it is now but we were in the CASS during the 1st week of indoc and encouraged to jumpseat when ever possible. Evidently now you are not allowed to do this except for on carriers other than Delta and the connections. Kind of seems backwards but what ever. I think people were getting screwed up when they would jumpseat and it was getting put in the system as Non-Rev instead which is definitely not allowed for your first 30 days in training. Oh well, good luck. Hope that helps.
