Thanks, I always thought it was our department number. That recently quit working. Cheers!

Apparently, a 66-year-old FA just retired after 46 years at NWA/DAL.

So I guess the average age of our FAs increased a little. When are the older gals going to retire? :D

Don't know, ask LNL76.

For example, when you try to check in for a dead head the Delta.com site asks this
Enter your 9-digit Primary Pass Rider (PPR) number and 2 digit-ID number

Contract reserve question. On call for eight days. Day one lc. Day 2,3,4, and 5 four day trip, then 24 hrs rest. I check my schedule on the bus to the lot, no changes. I figured I was free from duty for 24 hours, then on LC, because I wasn't assigned anything. 9 pm, we have a two day trip followed by rest, can they do that? Or was I supposed to be off for a minimum of 36 hours?

Not enough information - Recommend you call the DALPA contract guys. I will say that I don't believe that you can work 7 days in a row unless you have a 24 hour break. Note - any layover more than 24 hours satisifes this requirement, did your 4 day trip have any layovers greater than 24 hours, or perhaps does your 2 day trip?

I am also assuming that you did not actually get your 24 rest after your 4 day trip.

We were rerouted yesterday but the only problem was...scheduling didn't inform us. My first clue was that my deadhead reservation was gone on Travelnet; made me go 'hmmm....'. So I did a quick icrewmax check of my schedule and boom! We're going to EWR in lieu of BDL. Captain wasn't aware of it, no phone call, text, or ACARS message from scheduling. Captain had a nice chat with the Crew Tracking after that. When we screw up it's an invitation to the Chief Pilot's office...what about when schedulers mess up?

Santiago
 
Quick couple of questions. Thinking of non-rev'ing to Santiago with the family.

1. Are there family oriented things to do there?
2. Is the crew hotel nice and centrally located (and fairly priced)?

I can't find the rotation to there and don't know the hotel name.

Thanks,

Humboldt
