Anyone that uses ProDiem care to chime in? I got about $3600 in all domestic per diem last year and didn't know if anyone in a similar situation could post their ProDiem calculated amount.
Trying to figure out if it is going to be worth it to me.
Thanks.

Holy crud!
First time getting sidelined by DPA members today on the employ bus. I find it particularly ironic that DPA members seem to enjoy talking down and disrespecting pilots who aren't on board with their beliefs. If they are trying to convince people of your own beliefs they may want to refrain from using condescending sarcasm. I shouldn't if engaged, but I did. I blame myself.

So many opportunities to keep the conversation lively, but none that bring us together to make this job what it used to be.
My fun meter is pegged...
DPA has had over 2 yrs to get enough cards together and call for a vote. The condescending "tough guy" attitude is why so many aren't renewing those same cards. Time to bring it to a vote..
If DPA wins, I'll support the new representation. If DPA loses.. take off your DPA bag tag and get on board with the rest of us. Make your voice heard within DALPA. Let's not turn into the next AWA-USair-AMR debacle.
After all, it's about unity..right?

I had $3790 in per diem and ProDiem calculated $6981. Well worth the $50

If our express carriers can not find pilots, how will they continue to perform ~ 40% of our flying? How can they attract pilots to Endeavor's contract?
IMHO the second these become "Delta" jobs, then our express operation becomes the most coveted opportunity in the industry. Delta could do away with the shell game, unify the flight operations, get rid of seven redundant corporate structures (and defacto separate fleets) and maintain a near status quo cost structure. That is the way forward.

Bring back the RJ's to Delta. Start with the 76 seat Jets. They always were Delta Jobs. They Still are Delta Jobs. It's time a pilot with a Delta seniority number signs the release while flying one.
