Aren't you a new hire? There are FOs here who have been unstacked for holidays for the better part of a decade.

Or do you feel entitled to get your first Chrismas at Delta off?

Denny,

As you know, I'm also approaching the 400k mark this year... If you've got some ideas about holding on to the money, I'd love a PM as well.

I saw one newhire is working back to back to back to almost back trips over christmas, I think on the ER. It's something like 15 days in with one day off. Welcome to Delta and part 117.

I can't imagine any new hire on entry-level equipment will be forced to work more than one Christmas in this hiring environment--which is fantastic.

Jokes on you. It's like Christmas every day on the ER so it will be like double Christmas when I'm working on regular Christmas.

On a totally unrelated note, does anyone want to pick up a double Christmas trip next month?

I was looking at the awards and noticed someone at 50% working Christmas and then some. I was curious if they bid that because it'd been an easy time to get off. I go and look at the reasons report and they ftb.

Happens, but that stinks.
