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

In the summer of 2010 my phone rang a least twice a day on my days off. Like you, I often couldn't make it. But generally the report time was 1 hour before I got the call. Basically they were calling me at departure time! I did get a GS 4 day, but only because they were willing to give me a PS seat on an oversold RJ from my home to the departure airport. If it helps them, they can usually do it.

Yes, it does. Here is relevant part of the implementation schedule:

Effective January 1, 2013:

Thanks Denny! I'm assuming then that by 'Elimination of 75% pay' that that means anything currently designated as 75% will be brought up to 100%?

Thank you Richard, Ed and Paul. Before we move to questions I did just want to take a minute and remind everybody as Paul mentioned about our annual Investor Day which will be held on December 12 in New York. So please mark your calendars. We’ll send out more information shortly and we hope to see you all there.

So with that, Cindy, could you give everybody the instructions for the Q&A process.

I appreciate the GS system, it's better than a jetway assignment, I just wish that Holiday Pay had made it into C2012.

THIS! ^^^^^ +100!

The PILOTS are still the only Dept. that does not get 'premium pay' for working holidays.

Sorry for the thread creep, but can anyone answer this question. My wife is due to have surgry next tues, just found out today. I am a reserve guy. She needs about 2 weeks of recovery where she does little to nothing. Does anyone know of a way that I can get paid fmla or PTO. Or do I just call in sick. I also have 3 days of training to deal with in that time period. Thanks.

1. Calling in sick is illegal, so not an option, unless you have no integrity.
2. FMLA is available, and you can move unused vacation into the time period to get paid.

Unless one is unable to perform their duties due to not meeting the criteria of the IMSAFE checklist.

In addition to what PG suggested, you can try shifting reserve days too.

Thanks for the input. The "s" is for stress right?
