Shiz, I am pretty sure that the CP flows come in front of the XJ flows. Our agreement was created before theXJ agreement and that was how it was determined by NWA. As mentioned before, CP's tops out at 25% of 450 ish in a rolling 12 mos. (Approx 110-115) About 310 pilots still eligible.

Thanks for the update. Lets hope that the flow starts sooner than later!

Let's hope!

The "300"... How many MIL have come back? It's not a wash but it does offset that. Also the lie flat mod lines have shrunk active WB seats for the last 3 years.

All this rumor talk... I heard from a DPA guy who heard from an ALPA guy who was on a layover with a guy who flew with an LCA who said an AQFO talked to the CPO who told him that we are swapping all our 333's for all the Virgin Atlantic 744's and 340's.:D

No No, sorry, its not you. I didnt mean to say your post is long, its my phone.

The cursor disappears and then shows up in random places as you type or it keeps going to the top and you have to scroll down to where you were only to have it go back up and then repeat and repeat and repeat.

Its easier not to quote when using this phone because then I don't have to scroll.

Question: did we change the long layover in DTW? I see a trip with 25 hr layo, that says Marriot Renaiss... anyone know where this is? I ask because I do NOT want to layover in actual DTW, and I like the Livonia spot with movies and bar.
Thx!

--edit... googled it and it appears to be downtown DTW at the waterfront! W T F, no one actually wants to be IN DTW! Is the hotel committee on crack, and hoping to score from the hotel??

Had the Lavonia layover recently and the van driver mentioned the move, but said that we should really like the new location. I guess we'll see...

Does the hotel committee actually pick the hotels? My understanding was someone from the GO had a cushy job where they are wined and dined by the hotels they're reviewing but maybe that's an urban legend. We stay at nice hotels on the domestic side but some of the locations are sorry. We had better overnights on the regional side but I guess it was because they were picked by pilots?

The 88 bid packet on July 24 shows Livonia.

Yeah, I heard we were moving. The July LAX 73 bid package has us at downtown. Bummer.

On a similar note, why did we change our MIA hotel? The new place blows and is in the middle of nowhere. I loved the old place!!

Never stayed in Livonia but NWA crews use to stay at the Renaissance downtown. Great hotel, close to the ballpark and Greektown. Lots of good restaurants. Give it a chance, you might like it. BTW, retirement is great!

Quick question, say your going from a line in June to RES in July. How does a GS spillover work?

Our GS's here on the 88 are flowing. Just like Aspen, where the beer flows like wine. And I want to put myself in position later in the month to GS.

Thinking GS would pay double in Jun, then pay single if you are on "off" days in JUL for the carry-in, or if on resrv the first few days in JUL, nothing extra since you are on call anyway.
