Is he senior to you? :D

no but I want him to be happy and if commuting out of Chicago and switching planes in the first 3 years is enough to want to leave for United then I say giddy up...... plus I have 5 friends right now that would give their left nut to have his position so that's a win win and everybody's happy :)

Half a billion dollars just to consolidate two terminals where no one connects now anyway? Oh, and a slightly better rental car center.

And just where are they getting that much money to throw around? Oh yeah, that's right, raising fees sucking more money out of the local economy and magical free "federal grant" money! LOL! :rolleyes:

Sounds like someone is trying to get their friends some sweet contract gigs. At least they're not throwing money they don't have to LCC's in a futile attempt to generate the nonexistant "Southwest effect" of an "LCC". Oh wait...:rolleyes:

If that thing was written on April 1st I wouldn't have believed it because of how stupid it is. Something in all that mentioned 2027. That nonsense will be scrubbed long before then when they realize they have no way to pay for it.

I agree with you 100%! The NKY Cincinnati Airport Board must be the dumbest group of people on the face of the earth. Although I agree the rental car area of CVG could be improved, tearing down Concourse A (which was renovated last year) and Concourse B (still in good condition) isn't going to go well for CVG.

I always thought Delta would close the CVG hub due to market forces or the NWA merger. But now I know they'll have to close it due to the stupid people in charge of the airport. Good grief.

Unilinguals will need to get their attention somehow, otherwise just sit back and hope your number gets called against the odds. Everyone knows someone who knows someone, etc.

Wait, I thought you were a DFA anyway. Well best of luck!

Thanks for the good wishes! I don't know any DL FAs, so I'm on my own. I just hope they're going to hire something other than young and inexperienced. And no, I'm not DL FA. I think you may be confusing me with DALFA.

Come on, if you live in the epicenter of NYC you've got to know someone. Or know someone who knows someone. Even if its not a DL FA, you've got to know some DL employee in the area that would give you an internal.

Hard to believe, huh? Outside of the FAs I've worked with, I don't have any family, friends of acquaintances who work for any airline...

Ha! The Southern Baptist good ol' boys are in for a rude awakening with some of Branson's antics.

Do you suppose we will see this ad in the Atlanta market?

Probably. When I questioned the "Gay Marine Porn Star" book tour sponsorship, the response what that the LGT(and whatever the rest of that is) buys a lot of tickets.

I don't think Delta concerns itself with Baptist sensibilities. After all, Mr. Woolman was a Presbyterian. ... all things in moderation ...

Still, I wish we spent our marketing dollars on less controversial projects. The "Southwest Airlines" Coral Reef exhibit in the Atlanta Aquarium was a very good spend for AirTran in the day ... After all, everyone can enjoy the fish regardless of color, sex, age, or orientation. It is imagined the signs will be there as long as the aquarium exists and is an excellent promotion.

I'm embarrassed and ashamed. Truly nauseating. :(
