True, it would take a lot of GS and GSWC to justify upping the rates for everyone. But if the company has run the numbers and sees lots of cancelled flights due to 117...that adds up quick.

If the rumor's true...those rates better be adjusted for inflation. :cool:

Thanks... Quick question
FNG and it looks like I have a line out of training. What does the lavender color trips mean?

Good for you getting a line so quickly! Purple means a "coverage award" otherwise known as unstacking.

If you go to the Reasons Report on the May Award page it will show you how/when trips are placed on your schedule as the bid runs. Coverage Awards are at the top of your bid run, and are basically put there because the computer knows that somebody has to fly those trips, and you're junior enough to be on the hook for it. It usually happens on holidays and weekends.

Thanks. I'll see if I can dump that gem :D

It looks like it is only about 10 miles to Fayetteville. Souey pig!

Remind me not to have CQ and Vacation in the same month.

XNA is indeed northwest Arkansas, home of Walmart, my grandparents (yeah, Sam Walton was a friend because it was just a 5-10 then), some university that celebrates pigs and it feels like Oklahoma, because it almost is.

I do remember this overnight at Coex and somehow they put us in the middle of nowhere.

However, for us the overnight is pretty good. Good hotel in a commercial cluster area. So whatever you want and wherever you want to eat, it's within a 1/2 mile. There's a Starbucks nearby too. Definitely not a dump if you want a good hotel, tons of food options and every box store you can think of plus possibly an excursion to the lake on a 30 hour.

Dayton is a dump by which all dumps are measured. This isn't even close to Dayton dumpiness, it just sounds like it would be. But it's not.

But I did notice it said for XNA next month will advise, not sure but I hope we don't move. After all, when UsAir Express stays here, can't be that expensive.

I'm trying to determine if these Ar-kansas fans are as annoying in person as they are on SEC football websites.

It's Woo PIG SUEY! Say it 3 times then end with Razorbacks, orange dawg.

The website I pulled these from kind of confuses me. Those are all from Arkansas fans, that's their avatars. It's like people do the opposites. Maybe they lose bets or something.

I had a couple long layovers there at Pinnacle... there are some very good areas, one of which we stayed at. I remember there were a bunch of restaurants and a strip mall, plus a good place to go running.

And in all irony, no Wal-Mart anywhere nearby....


The airport is definitely out in the middle of nowhere.
