Not true. Some of the best ribs I've had are in the Museum District in Amsterdam. Try Castell BBQ sometime.

International Paper moved their operational headquarters to Memphis in '06 partly because of the ease of air travel. Their execs have expressed their displeasure in the local press over the drawdown. Probably they and other businesses based there like Autozone, Medtronic etc are putting pressure on Cohen.

USELESS TRIVIA:

Oddly enough, nearby Denmark raises swine that actually have more tender and meatier ribs than those "harvested" from domestic swine.. Quite a few of the "better" rib joints in Memphis ship their ribs in from Denmark.

Exception one: The DL code may be placed on AS flight segments to or from LAX, subject to Section 1 O. 2. Any such flight segments between LAX and an Alaska hub will be included in the calculations in Section 1 O. 3. Exception two.

The rest talks about exceptions on hub to hub flights which these are not because SEA is not a "hub."

The way I read it, it seems pretty clear that Delta cannot place it's code on these flights because SLC is a Delta hub.

Denny

Edit: Now that I think about it, the Alaska SEA to ATL flight(s) are in the same boat. Do we allow our code on these flights????????

Great Question Denny.

Well if you VD you will incur a 2 yr freeze, and you will only hold what the seniority of the person you are saving from a MD will hold. Of course considering the seniority number of the most junior NYC 7ERB, that's probably not an issue.

I think if you want to protect yourself you AE NYC 320B @ a percentage(ex-NYC 320B 75%), then AE NYC 7ERB. Then VD NYC 7ERB. As always, you could contact DALPA for the best advice.
