That is not a legit stroopwaffel! Please use your Delta bennies, go to Amsterdam, find a small stroopwaffel shop, eat one, and then get back to me. Stat, time is wasting!

I will report back!

I took you to mean legit in terms of snack basket offerings.. I mean in reality, nothing in those baskets is legit when compared to a local shop in Europe. But they're legit as far as a tasty treat while you chat about getting hired at a major.

What I would love to see is crackers and almond butter (similar to the hummus pack) and caramel popcorn.

Pistachios and beef jerky

Thank God we’re back on subject here!

If it's not united flying I hope it's something really weird or previously unheard of. Like jetblu connections or Uber Airlines or IDK something crazy different.... Disney.... Sure. What other crazy stuff you got? I remember someone saying something about Nabisco a while back LOL.

Eh I called us losing the DL stuff pretty much on the head about a year ago, I’ll shoot my shot again.

Between August 20 and Sept 15th we will receive news that we will be adding 30 E175’s to our fleet, flying for the guys in the Willis Tower. This will come with a base at a hot, humid Texas airport, and maybe one more domicile in a place that rhymes with buwark. The jets unfortunately will be taken from a coMpeting regional. The jets will arrive at a pace that does not force the company to furlough, but for 6 months we will be painfully over staffed. Goodbye SEA. PHX will go too if DL is going to make us start paying for our MX space there.

- alternate theory -

The deal flops and management pushes the announcement date continually, and doesn’t admit it until they’ve dragged us along to stay staffed. I cry quietly as I update AirlineApps and tell my dog that everything is going to be okay

How about Mokulele feeder? We get a fleet of 206s to cover the routes with limited 208 demand.

Or! Fedex Super-mainline! We get some Antonov AN-225s to fly the routes too heavy for their 777s!

That OO memo on Comply... I mean I'm glad they are stepping up to help out and such but seeing that made me really feel it in the pit of my stomach. Seeing the GoJet, TSA, and now OO hiring memos as each day passes with radio silence has me slowly losing hope. My lease expires in October so that's my Go/No-Go point.

Still hoping for the best. Really been appreciating the attitudes on the line. Despite all that has happened, still seeing smiles and upbeat attitudes. In the words of the wise Teabag Bandit, Hang in there guys...big news this Friday.

OO offering preferred interviews? Since I am not on the inside yet .. just curious. My go/no-go I guess is October if I am getting on a plane for training start.
