I also don't think we're going to snap back to the abusive way it used to be. But if a recovery system is proposed that strictly protects originally awarded report and release times and honors the same redeye and theatre paradigms, hotels in domicile and a positive space commute for each originally scheduled front or back end DH, plus greater of per day pay protection, I don't think you're going to see 51% of the pilot group turn down sorely needed across the board improvements just so that a couple guys per category can buddy bid with check airmen and get their entire month off, or that plus GS for a month and make triple pay.
While we do all hear of guys who cash in on certain aspects of our contract in a big way, those work rules are there to protect everyone. Do we really want more recovery flying rather than less? Is it really OK for a pilot, any pilot, who happens to have an LCP swap onto his trip suddenly have FCO taken away from him and be sent to DKR instead, so long as it's in the same footprint and he gets an extra hotel room, all for the convenience of the Company?
Sorry, but I'd rather have door pay and have my flight time start counting after engine start.

Quick question. Need to get ZED paper passes for my parents who are traveling today. They can buy them at a Delta ticket counter, correct?

Also, you can find a list of all ZED participants on the travelnet. This will tell you whether or not they participate electronically. Very few require you to go to the ticket counter.

Actually, most companies now participate in the ZED program electronically. You can get those through the travelnet. I was able to get a ZED fare on KLM from Zurich to AMS just 30 mins prior to departure using my smartphone.

Yep, almost every airline except Alaska is electronic. They do make the paper process easy though if that helps and the agents can change the paper ticket to a different flight and destination if you want to change them.

BYOD update The number of consolidated BYOD subscribers with eligible devices is now 3,107. Approximately 2,500 have installed Jeppesen FliteDeck Pro and the AirWatch Secure Content Locker. The next step is determining how many of these pilots will switch to a Surface 2 tablet. The key dates for the BYOD group are:
March 10: Email will go out to all BYOD subscribers with a survey link for selecting which tablet they will use for the FAA validation - iPad or Surface.
March 21: Enrollment for the BYOD program closes. Pilots enrolling from March 10-21 will receive individual surveys.
March 31: BYOD tablet selection survey closes. Any BYOD pilot not responding to the survey will be removed from the BYOD program and will be added to the Surface 2 validation group.
