So you are fine with it as is? What happened to wanting all that flying in house?

 

Random question, anyone aware of any special information when non-revving out of Madrid? Do you have to wait for seat assignment before going through security? Thanks.


BTW, tried the non-rev group and got nothing.

 

No. I literally said they can increase the flow as they bring airplanes over. That's not hard to understand, is it?

 

It’s pretty painless. Good, long-time Delta agents there.

You can go through security with just a seat request card. 99% of the time this is the case as they wait to clear you at the gate unless the flight is empty.

It can take awhile to check in on a busy day. You can speed that up by doing as much check in online ahead of time as possible. They will still have to “interview” you and put a little sticker on your carry-ons and passport. You can usually just do the kiosk, bag drop and then head for security.

The only potential gotcha is random secondary screening. It’s usually marked on your seat request card with SSSS, but sometimes they’ll random regardless. That can take awhile (very detailed) so get to the gate early and if you have the S’s be proactive and ask to get the secondary screening out of the way.

They also have a little different way of handling US bound flights, so you’ll eventually end up coralled with the other ATL/JFK pax behind a rope once they’ve checked your passport/boarding doc one final time. It’s pretty well organized but once you’re in there’s no bathroom access and they don’t really want people going in/out if it can be helped.

Otherwise the agents will clear everyone in order. No games like I’ve seen elsewhere. Enjoy!

 

Piedmont & Allegheny (USAirways Express). It was a long standing agreement that any merger between the two would be DOH. That’s what’s happened AFAIK.

Air Tran and SWA was done post merger announcement and didn’t go to arbitration. While I’m sure some would argue it was consensual, the SLI was voted in at AirTran, and that was that. There were no successful DFR claims as far as I know.

 

The logistics of your wet dream won't work, but keep preaching.

 

Assuming level earnings in 2020-2022, and that pilots are 1/3 of the payroll, including the the one time payment as eligible earnings will bring about 4.5% more PS to the pilots.

 

Care to elaborate or are you just planning on being typically obtuse.

 

​​​​​​Obtuse? LOL. OK Chief.

Your 'what I want' bias clouds logic.
