Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
Normally, I am able to move my seats under the first option multiple times.
On a side note you may be trying to book in a EC or premium seat too far out from departure (24 hrs for employees) and it is refusing to let you move.

Can someone out there answer a 23k recovery question for me. This is my first time doing any recovery flying.
I have 23k on my schedule from the 11th - 23rd of AUG. Am I to assume that scheduling has till 0700E two days prior to my original report to assign me a trip. If they don't assign me a trip I am free to go and pay protected. If scheduling assigns me a trip, does it have to start on the 11th or can it start anytime from the 11th to 23rd.
Last question, is it to my advantage to fill out a recovery slip?
Thanks for your help,
BFS

Wow!
From the update:
"At that point, Delta expected to grow compared to JV partners Air France, KLM and Alitalia. Due to many factors, this growth beyond our “fair share” has not occurred."
So if we were to meet the "contractually agreed to" numbers then we would be flying more than our "fair share" of the flying. No wonder DALPA does not seem too concerned about this.
This brings up numerous questions:
If the contractual number is not fair - why did we and/or our partners, and the company agree to them?
If the contractual numbers do not represent our fair share of the flying then what is our fair share?
Why don't they just say the company is not meeting its obligations and we expect them to correct it?
OBTW - Who had the great idea of a 3 year measurement window anyway?

If you'd like to see Sandra Bullock all hot and bothered in a suit...

ATLANTA, Feb. 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL) Board of Directors has set the airline's annual meeting of stockholders for 7:30 a.m. ET, June 27, 2013. The meeting will be held at the offices of Cravath, Swaine and Moore, LLP, 825 Eighth Ave., New York, New York.

Makes sense from a stock standpoint seeing as we just posted a decent profit in Q2.

The 3 year window, in addition to the cure period, is basically useless if you ask me. March 2015 bumps up to openers for contract 2016 which undoubtedly be hung over our heads.
