Delta Indoc Dinner
 
...So how weird would it be to take a sleeping baby to it? We have a four month old but no babysitter since it's Atlanta. Kind of throws a kink in things...

Not happening

That would be frowned upon, unless you and your wife are both of the same gender. Then it will be on the Deltanet propoganda feed, and Delta will issue a pandering press release about how diverse they are.

Very weird. Don't do it. Better off paying for a family member to fly in and make a weekend out of it.

Got it. Wife will take your word over mine haha. Thanks

Absolutely. It'll be a night you'll remember forever.

...or it'll be forgettable. I wasn't able to bring my wife into town because of our kid situation and she didn't miss much although we missed each other as happens in this business. If you've had other accomplishments in life, it might feel weird celebrating the wings in spite of not having even started aircraft training. Not to say you'll have a bad time, and it could be a great date night. But IMHO (and it's only that), I wouldn't move heaven and earth to attend as a couple.

If this is where he's strived to be his entire flying career, even his life, then it will be something he wants to be a part of. I say make the effort until you've exhausted all options. If it doesn't work out it obviously wasn't meant to be.

I thought I was being too judgemental when I noticed that crud.
