Thre retirement lists for the next few months should all look like that as well. Had they not changed the age 60 rule we would be seeing numbers like that without early outs right now for years and years. The numbers really are eye opening when you look at them on paper.

This APA doesn't reflect any of the displacements yet to come with the ANC base closure. That comes next month with the DAL-N only AE.

Any idea where a curious DALS guy can look at the APA award and the previously mentioned newsletter? Thanks

Does anyone know why travelnet won't show certian flights? I'm guessing it's because the flight is full. But, it would be nice to be able to see how full (or, over-full). Anyone have any suggestions?

New,

Have you tried checking the exact flight you're looking for? I've ran into the same problem so I usually search the same flights a week in advance just to get the specific flight # I'm looking for, then I check that specific flight rather then ask for a search from departure point to destination.

Johnson,

The flight is showing up now. Go figure. It might have something to do with what time of day I'm checking. Thanks!

They do.. but it's called a "super-premium" report. Sorry... couldn't resist.
