Over six hours on one engine??

They'd better hope that other engine doesn't fail or they'll be up there all day!

Weird...I have a schedule on iCrew mobile, but nothing on DeltaNet, not even back door.

I had a somewhat cynical thought last night... Everyone was wondering why we had an early profit sharing payout on the 3rd. Some thought it was due to a tax advantage, some thought it was because of wall street un-ease with corporate give away that wasn't to share holders.

Then I noticed that the across the board raises went to everyone not on a CBA about the same time I saw the IAM billboard across from the flight attendant training center.

It is illegal to give money to a group that is trying to organize, but it is not illegal to give money to everyone at the same time.

BTW, I think our opening position should start 4% higher than our current rates when the agreement becomes amendable!

Maybe I am a conspiracy nut and i should put my tinfoil hat back on....

This has been going on forever. Every time the F/A's or ground people start talking about a Union, the company throws money at them to make it go away.

Upon closer examination, the fuel hedging "gurus" didn't fare so well.

Plunging oil prices should be a boon for us. Instead they costs DAL an additional $347 million charge for the quarter.

Brilliant.
