I realize that's all true for Delta. It often surprises people to learn that KCM is not restricted solely to going to/from work. Again, specific airline policies nonwithstanding.

It's ok. They're going to a big farm with other planes. They run and run and play all day long.

Ummm, every time I go to and from Atlanta I'm either leaving work or going to work. Work may be a couple days away but I still have to come to Atlanta to start a trip. If I'm lounging in Hawaii on Friday, my trip starts Monday, it's a commute on Saturday. Just because your on vacation doesn't mean your not commuting.

Anyone else notice the "Keeping our backpacks on" sign in the GO parking lot complete with picture of a DL pilot?

Isn't that an FOM violation?

What airline is DS and why are they all going to Vegas when I'm trying to score an upgrade while DH to cover some red eye that the New Yorkers always sick out of?

Ironically, he's not wearing a backpack. I looked! It's on a light post right near RA's office on the main entrance drag. I'll check for hat tomorrow... I was more interested in looking for a backpack today.

It's part of all the new propaganda they've recently put up. Me calling it the Kremlin has been a self fulfilling prophecy, I guess.

If you look closely you'll see the DALPA rep handing the pilot his backpack as he throws some work rules into the trash.
