Delta's machines don't seem to have that problem...imagine that!

The unlimited no penalty reassignment of pilots sitting for two hours at hubs during their trips is effectively airport resrve, backfilled by short call reserve.

Total BS. Of course it’s par for the course with this union. They spend more time purposely ****ing their own members and fighting over stupid stuff than anything else
