Most screens have a help menu. Usually F5 key. It will display the codes.

I use Parking Spot. Join the Spot Club, for Delta Employees it's $5/day uncovered.

Employee non-rev parking is in the GOE lot by the Delta Heritage Museum. Shuttles run 24/7.

If you are non-rev you are NOT allowed to park in the on duty lot OR the landslide lot either. You cannot ride any employee bus if you are a non-rev, period. Does anybody enforce this? Not really. But it is against TSA and company policy. Just ask your chief pilot if you don't believe me.

Don't be "that guy". Use the GOE or spend the $5.

Everything else is straight to savings/retirement.

Funny. I remember saying that exact same thing 8 years ago. Still haven't gotten there yet. Nothing in the savings. But I'm having one hell of a time. :-)

By the way, I thought the Landside lot was supposed to be converted to expand the on duty lot back in June. Everyones has been complaining that we can't find a spot to park to go fly our rotations. What happened to that?

Always thought those complaining were quite funny... there are tons of spots open... just not right next to a pick up shed... it actually is ok to walk more than a few steps.

Yep. I wonder if these are cousins of those who spend five minutes driving at the store, back and forth up one aisle and down the next to save 30 seconds of walking.
