Fellas,
Can we Non-Rev on Delta Connection flights?

Thanks

And you can non-rev on just about any other carrier as well, but you can only reserve the jump seat on mainline--no OAL, no DCI.

Quick question. I'm in the Mar. 17th class and trying to figure out what to bid (assuming my SS starting with a "9" will still afford me a bit of options!?...)

Living in Dallas and probably going to be stuck with a commute (at least for the near future.) So, if I wanted to do JFK vs. LAX which option do you think would be a better commute (assuming I have the option to bid Boeing A/C in either coast). I have a buddy at JetBlue who's been commuting for a couple years from DFW now and he's always made it to work. Don't know anything about the commute from Dallas to LAX though?

Also, anyone hear any rumors about what the breakdown might be for the 17th? Still going to be a fairly good amount of 7ERs and MD88s in JFK to nab? I'm wondering if Monday's class will be indicative of anything?

Anyway, any help would be appreciative, thanks! :cool:

I'm also in the March 17th class and my SSN starts with an 8 - So I think you should bid NYC or ATL, but not LAX! :rolleyes:

I'm a west coast guy - hoping for LAX or SLC :D

Does anybody think there will be any ATL spots?

Not for you Refund. Ever.

You will have field LSO everyday

DFW - LAX. Not a clue. I've personally never talked to anybody who commutes from Dallas, or anywhere east of there who commutes out to LA, though I'm sure they exist somewhere. Seems to me that the bulk of the LA guys are west coasters, or at least mountain states and points west.

I've flown with one captain who commutes DFW/LAX. His take is that it's easier that either ATL or SLC.

Awesome. I can drink every night then. You girl.

Non-Rev Question

Thanks Fellas,
I thought Brian said we could.

So long as I can see it on travelnet, I can book it S2/S3... Non-Rev.

Thanks again

You're only S3C on Connection flights.

I asked Mr. Bolt when he called and he told me if he told me he'd have to kill me! He then gave a general idea that it'd be a mixture of wide/narrow bodies and a mixture of bases. I got the feeling it'd just be a bigger grouping of what folks have been getting lately, nothing earth shattering.

I asked if there would be any CVG spots and he said yes, followed by "they'll probably all be gone by your seniority". I should be right in the middle of the pack based on my social, FWIW.
