Glad I didn't have enough curiosity to go and see what this was about.

I don't recall anything in those notes that wasn't already known.

- Seattle is important to Delta. Doesn't take much work on google to find that DAL has recently added flights there. Im sure AMR and SWA have no idea we codeshare with Alaska.

-The Atlantic markets are weak. Who in this industry does not know that.

- Delta is going to play Boeing vs. Airbus. Nothing that AMR didn't do last year and that Delta didn't previously do with the 737-900 order.

Every time that I get a line check, those guys love to play "I know something that you don't game" and I'll tell you on the leg home if there's time. They tell us and then we come here (or other forums) and tell all of our buds. My point is that information finds it's way here anyway. I even saved the "Delta Digest" or whatever it was called, where RA said "I'm not here to merge this airline". Within 6 months he announced the merger with NWA. I think that certain items they put out are mis-information anyway.

In summary, look out for a HA merger within 6 months!

This was no way close to a court order . And if they wanted names, would it not be easier and cheaper to put the heat on you guys?(employees)

This is a clear conflict of interest to moderate a supposed anonymous forum where said moderators are employees of, and known to, any level DL mgmt.
Could you please explain why your ability to read these notes is worth taking even the slimmest chance someone could lose their job? I don't care if it is a conflict of interest, the interest is in saving someone's job and not reading gossip. You will live without this information, how is someone going to care for their family without a job? Priorities man, priorities.

What are the best tools to wade through the health insurance options? Thinking about making some changes in coverage but the online tool doesn't seem so helpful.

Not sure on the exact date but all the info is out there right now. Without digging back in the website I think it is next week.

Anyone made a case between gold and DPMP? Married, 1 child at home.

Monthly fee less important than what I have to pony up for each doctor visit. My son always maxes out, my wife and I are healthy and just use normal gender related medical.
