His airplanes say Delta Air Lines on them. His passengers' tickets say Delta Air Lines on them. Most importantly, his paychecks say Delta Air Lines. He's an employee of Delta Air Lines, Inc. If he comes over to the Delta Air Lines certificate, HR will consider it a rehire. He's at DAL like it or not. If we don't want him on our seniority list or represented by our union or accruing longevity for his DAL service, that's on us and frankly pretty shortsighted & playing into management's hand. What's next, buying Alaska but not integrating their pilots & planes, sending 737s to whichever operator is cheaper? And then telling AS pilots they're not DAL and their input isn't relevant in this supposed DAL-pilots-only thread? Who would that benefit, exactly? Not us or them, right? So what precisely is the difference with 9E pilots? I'm not sure if the Comair pilots had "Delta Air Lines" on their paychecks, but aren't 9E pilots in the same position that they were? Is there is anything that stops Delta from doing to 9E what they did to Comair? |

Not asking for his name or señorita number!! Just trying to do a little research, something he can't won't or doesn't know how to do, to determine where he is comjng up with more work less pay.
I gave my specific examples and his inability to "play along" shows his true colors.

I'd hate for guys to judge me in person based on my sometimes outspoken persona here, which I don't believe is indicative of the "real life" me.

Interesting. The thing I like least about APC is the anonymity. I stand behind what I say on the boards and would say the same to anyone's face. To be honest, I think the anonymous bit is, to be blunt, cowardly. That said, that's the rule of the game here and I try to play by the rules (most of the time.)
Bottom line, PD has the right to be anonymous, and it's not cowardly. He also has no leg to stand on when he describes wage losses between 2012 and 2013. |

I don't know why, but posters are almost more interested in maintaining their anonymous name on APC, than they we were on the ALPA forum. It works well, especially considering the fact this is a public arena. Under no circumstances do I want my real name known to whatever trolls and lurks around here. If we were exclusively Delta pilots, with a firewall, I would be OK with it. As an alternative, if it was limited to ALPA pilots, with a firewall, I would also prefer using real names.

My point was that, especially when on reserve, I work more for the extra money, and I MUST work more. Manning is tighter due to C12 concessions, making it harder (impossible during summer and most weekends) to drop trips and reserve days (my heavily utilized method of improving QOL). For me, the extra days of work are not worth the marginally higher pay. Not by a damn sight. What the DALPA regulars here refuse to acknowledge in my criticism of their C12 defensive perimeter is that my QOL and amount of time with my family has diminished. I'm not the only one. And QOL/time with the fam is far more important to me than a few extra bucks. |

Thx for the support.
Farmlover, we support you every time you log another hr of TMEL flying jets paid for by DL, burning fuel paid for by DL, filled with pax holding a DL ticket, serving city pairs that used to be served by mainline pilots. |

Trying to book my spouse and I to Paris in a couple weeks. When I go try to list from "Point A, to a hub, to Paris" it shows 0 seats available. Now, when I check specifically from said "Hub" to Paris, there are seats. When I put in "Point A to Hub" there are seats available. Why then are there no seats from Point A to Paris? I don't get it and am getting frustrated. I can list on either leg, just not both of them together. Errrrr :confused: |
