Probably not.
Absolutely no way on either.😁

On the other hand, your unrelenting support for our president amazes. A lot of your brethren have bailed.

From "Forgot To Bid": Anyways, doesn't the MEC dictate to the NC what to do? If there is 1 guy that wants to trade PS for GM, what's wrong with hearing about it now in full? Why wait until an entire TA is negotiated and dropped in our laps with a sales pitch and a demand to sign it or face the consequences?[/QUOTE]

Nice theory, but it didn't happen in 2012. The fact is that the conference call just 36 hours before the announcement of a T/A included a "suggestion" from the MEC Chairman and the Negotiating Chairman that we consider a reduction in PS to get better pay rates. The resulting discussion ended with a general sentiment of: No, our pilots did not ask for a trade of one type of pay for another, just a stiff increase" (an opinion of the general sentiment of the LEC reps).

In this case the LEC's provided direction and both the NC and the MEC Chairman ignored it. Then the sales job began to push for a unanimous vote to send the mediocre agreement to the pilots for their stamp of approval.

And with that, buzz and newK are the last in this awful political back and forth. Seriously this time. I'm meaner than Scoop.

If you can show I have ever received a dime from DALPA or even a single instruction to make a post I will donate 5000.00 dollars to the Delta pilots relief fund. You can have 2 weeks to research and have your reps check. If however your not telling the truth in your insinuations you donate 5000 to the fund? So is the bet on?
P.S. I will be happy to make the same bet with Purple
In the spirit of calling people out...I would like to offer the same deal to FTB because, while he "pretends" to be a Delta pilot, I have strong reason to believe that he is in fact the supercomputer Watson designed by IBM and used to promote Microsoft Excel through a partnership agreement. Think about it....Seatle....Ths Surface...Pacific Northwest....Chemtrails...Juneau, AK....All the pieces are there.

And Sailing, come on, The Delta Pilots Relief Fund, really? Everybody knows that the Delta Pilot Relief Fund is a cover for The Baby Beluga Whale Endangerment Fund. Additionally, instead of $5,000, I will alter that amount to $49.99 paid through a check that will probably bounce to the College Park Health Department, Enforcement Division in their consideration thorough inspection of Spondivitis and the restaurants role in the latest outbreak of both Ebola and Measels.

Can someone please direct me to the exact place on DeltaNet/TravelNet where the age limitations for premium cabin seating for a non-reving child are? At what age can they ride up front? It seems to change every couple of years depending on weather some management guy has little ones or not.

Thx, AC

Was changed to 5 YO during the merger. Used to be 8. Really steamed my oldest when his younger siblings were allowed in FC at 6. He said he had to wait til 8, so they could go sit in the back until they turn 8. Was a rude lesson that the world doesn't quite work the way we want it to sometimes.

So our kids don't get shot at?

It's just Monopoly money at this point anyway. Albeit the best Monopoly money.
