I have a few friends at spirit and more than one regularly drops his entire (or close to it) schedule and just flies premium.

RDU is seasonal, flight attendants can fly any equipment so seasonal changes can be accommodated. The situation with pilots is quite different so I am surprised you are trying to make a comparison. I think SFO was closed. The cost to the company is not having a CP and staff it’s the training issues involved in equipment changes. Displacements, paid moves ect.. get expensive. That does not even get into the reserve issue but ask a VB based flight attendant about it if you want a earful!
It all requires a paradigm shift away from the old way of thinking within Flight Ops management. They would first need to acknowledge the need to make Delta more appealing to future new hires. I don’t see it happening with the current group.

Well, here we are after a major holiday. It appears little to no disruption. I guess lack of positive space commuting made little operational difference sadly.
We don’t know how many sicked out or showed up late, but overall not nearly the chaos many expected on here.

One thing I’ve noticed since PSC ended is numerous listed jumpseaters no show. When I see a listing and no one boards I like to go up to check with the gate agent and look around. Showed the name to an agent in PBI the other day. She knew the guy and told me “oh yeah, he was here. Left on an earlier flight.” He never cancelled his listing.
I’m not a commuter, but if I was this would annoy me.

I does annoy me, because that means I probably took an earlier flight to go to home or a later going back because someone double listed.

commuting in last night. Traffic was light, realized I was going to make earlier flight so got that JS. Then couldn’t figure out how to cancel the other reservation on MiCrew! So here is my PSA -
on MiCrew, select jumpseats at bottom. Select booked top center. Now slide the reservation right, just like you do getting a flight plan.
it’s a new change I believe. Plus, I may not be boomer old, but all this new tech moves way faster than I care to keep up with!

When I was hired Delta had a DFW, MIA, and BOS base. No jumpseat and non-rev cost $15 per segment for employees with less than 10yrs of service. All reserves sat short call twice a day. So no, nobody commuted really. But now the world revolves around the commuter and their problems, or "post-PSC issues" as the thread starter says. Yes, the airline is probably going to shut down without the best and brightest new hires. Can you say "entitled"?
