The stuff I posted was just word of mouth lower level rumors... and I didnt see the 321/739 RFP thing in there either. (thanks, t). That's not exactly a positive category replacement for the domestic 767!
So does that mean that I might win you over to my argument about how stoopid bigger paying more is?

Way too positive. We're not allowed to say such things on this forum.

I'm for a compromise on that... much broader general categories similar to the way UA and FDX scales are set up.

80 and 1067

Thanks for the info. That is something everyone should read, and yes it is very good.
Another tidbit from the meeting was We made in the 1st quarter what UCAL lost. I know Tsquare said it a few weeks ago and the other day I heard the same rumor with an associated number. If the number is true it will be a great first quarter.

Interesting that Delta released this extremely positive info (which they surely know will be disseminated far and wide) on the same day they were able to get a highly complimentary article into the WSJ.

Really turning up the heat on Alaska.

I think the more appropriate question is why not DXB-DTW. DTW has a large Arabic population.

T

I am with you on the pay scale. I think are best chance is a United or FedEx type of scale with NB vs WB.

I only think how news like this is aimed at the stock price.

Back in the mid 2000s NWA applied for and was granted rights to fly to Iraq based on that large population in DTW. There is a large population of Christian Iraqis in that area.

Default Payback used for a Res G/S

Okay, I have searched the posts on this thread and not quite sure about this.
I just picked a Res G/s 3 day. Only the first day is an X day and the last two are normal on call days. So if I understand this correctly I will get the pay for the hours flown on the first day over my Res Guarantee.

My real question is I have a P/B day on the books from a previous IA, Can I put that Payback day on my schedule on Day 3 of the trip? That would pay the best for me as it a 35 hour layover and then back flying into base day 3.
Anyone?
