Regarding the Scope JV stuff.....This is what I wrote to my Rep, please write your reps and tell them how you feel about the JV compliance or lack of.
Dear Rep xyz,
I am writing you to express my opinion and concerns over the the JV out of compliance situation we are currently experiencing. It dismays me that one, there is a three year rolling window on this. Two, that there is no 'penalty' language in the contract to penalize the company until they come into compliance. And three that it appears that the company is making very little if any attempt to even get into compliance.
This is Delta Pilot Widebody Jobs.... Period. It is an affront to our union that the company is so far out of compliance and has very little respect for our contract and our UNION that they quite simply are ignoring us and our contract.
I do not want constructive engagement on this, I do not want a Letter of Agreement on this, quite simply I want the company to be in compliance. Until then, Grieve this issue and lets hold their feet to the fire. Our pilot group has given enough away on scope, and this is (or shortly will be) a clear violation of what little scope we have left in the contract.
Please Stand firm and take this issue to the wall.

New hourly shuttle service launched between LAX and SFO with complimentary Wine, Beer and Starbucks and dedicated Shuttle checkin counters....
Served by Compass E175...Because no gates in LAX
Delta Launches Los Angeles to San Francisco Shuttle - Aug 1, 2013
Cheers
George
P.S. I welcome any change in LA that has our name on the side of the jet, even if it's just as "part of a phrase."

I was just about to post the article as well. While it will be Compass flying the route, I'm still shocked that Delta is even expanding presence at all on the West Coast. 14 daily flights is pretty impressive.

So there are four trips in open time on Saturday. Three two day trips with early reports and a commutable three day trip. I'm in the six day bucket and I'm the senior reserve. Guess who gets the nice commutable three day trip? The junior guy in the three day bucket while I get stuck with the nasty non-commutable two day causing me to lose a whole day at home. What a bunch of garbage.

For a couple of years (99-2011) we actually honored a high yellow with out regards to DOA, but that went away with C2K.
