Airline Pilot Central Forums - Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

We can't touch what JetBlue is doing now. They would kick our butts from one end of the playing field to the other. Take a look at the CASM's of each airline on the A320. Its all about cost in the end.

Maybe we could configure a bunch of 757s to a single class configuration to compete. We could call it Song! Just a thought.

If you're interested in any of those solutions, drop me a pm and I'll give you contact info.

I know that place. :D

Thank goodness they'll start parking the 88s when we start getting 717s. :rolleyes:

Anyone on reserve ever notice their RAW score go down?

I've been off for a few days and my score has gone down twice without working. First just one point, now another 4 points. How can that happen?

Thanks.

Thanks Boog;
I got the letter via email today, about two hours after posting the question.

Denny,

As long as you don't mind working holidays and don't get displaced I don't think you'll regret your decision. Since you live in base and there is no such thing as a bad trip in Seattle on the 330 I think you're going to be very happy.

Aside from the downside of occasionally having to fly with Ferd.

It's already been done. I think it's best to think outside of the box. Keep our name and then add something like Connection or Express.
