I beg to differ. You don't have to be a manager or executive to be a salaried employee, regardless of the industry. Virtually every other profession has salaried employees. The hourly wage thing has always been an issue with me. I know why the airline industry does it. Doesn't make it right. If you require college degrees and years of training, you should be salaried. Just like every other non-aircrew employee at DAL.

I agree. A salary is a way for you to do free work. As it is now, if we work extra, we get paid extra.

Interesting snippet from a Seeking Alpha article:
To cover up for empty seats, Southwest Airlines had implemented a "No Show policy" and "Lost Ticket." Under the no show policy, if a customer fails to change or cancel tickets 10 minutes prior to travel and fails to board the flight, he/she will be termed as a "no show" and no refund will be provided. In case of Lost Ticket, no replacement or refund would be provided and new tickets will have to be purchased at appropriate fare charges.
I wonder if the rest will follow suit.
LUV is also increasing it's stock buyback plan. I wonder if that is also one of the reasons why shareholders are paying up for the stock....

Alfa,
I cannot imagine the pain and agony you and yours are going thru now. No parent should out live their kids. This has always been my greatest fear.
My heart goes out to you and your family. I pray you all can find a path to navigate thru this tragedy.
