Now, I'm not sure what benefits you guys are getting, but if you keep your Delta benefits, you can still non-rev to Europe obviously. Hopefully the Union will come through and get a better benefits package for you guys, I know it will be though for some guys without health insurance.
I hear Comair is treating off days just like min line values. They just impose them and use them how they wish. Just because you have been awarded days off, doesn't mean you will get them. Their response "Grieve it."

Also heard from the MEC that comair is going to look for an additional 300 pilots to cut through voluntary and buy outs. Anyone hear that one yet?
If we wind up getting rid of anywhere close to that number of people in addition to those on the furlough list, I wouldn't be suprised if they are just slowly(few months) closing the doors.
