crew meal? Or take delay to get food?
It's 2 turns out of JFK so more than likely turn time will be further reduced

Thanks
An old captain once told me that if Delta wanted an on time operation, they would schedule us for an on time operation.

The day you describe is not scheduling for a safe, on time operation. Take the time to eat and eat properly when you feel the need. No one should ever question it.

If someone does give you a hard time, just reply schedule with safety.

New IRS limits for 2015 for 401(k)/415(c) have been released:

To summarize:

You may contribute $18,000 (up from $17.5K in 2014).
The catch-up limit will be $6000 (up from $5.5K)
The 415(c) limit (combined company + employee contributions) is $53,000 (up from $52K).
The annual compensation limit is $265,000 (up from $260K).

Still having problems?

Ever wonder if it's better to start putting some of that money under your mattress?

We may only own 49 percent of VA, but I have to think that our WB order will take into consideration the availability of parts and MX around the system. Having a partner that flies the same equipment makes sharing MX needs a lot more straightforward. Sir Richard was in ATL today along with the 789...
