Anyone have an idea on what the plan is for the NWA 787 orders? I assume DL still holds those as options. A350..is that a replacement for the 744?

Waiting on a bus is just that depressing. I like walking to my car.

Okay...I talked to the ALPA scheduling bubba and he figured it out, and it was a bonehead error on my part.

When I put the swap in, I listed the trips to add vertically instead of horizontally. With a vertical listing, PCS sees the request as an "either or" which, in this case, was a net drop. I needed to list the trips next to each other which translates to adding both instead of just one.

Hopefully that reminder can save someone some angst.

When you go to log into DLNet, at the Bottom there is a link that says, "Help" It will guide you through the steps, no login info needed. (at least that's what it says). At the very bottom of that page is a link to initiate a chat.

Yes it is a treat. I do the same thing in LAX for 1 or 2 day green slips. The whole parking/bus process is a PITA. It is a joy to be at my car in the short term lot less than 5 minutes after walking off the Jet.

And sometimes that 30 minute head-start can add up to over an hour less battling traffic on "The 405."

Vacation Q

Due to lots of MLOA, I've never had more than one week of vacation. I have two for '16-'17.

I have 6 different weeks that I would prefer to have my vacation awarded.

For Primary Vacation do I list in order the weeks I'd like, 1-6? Then for Secondary Vacation do I re-list them again, hoping to get the next preference or maybe hopes of getting my first choice in the second round? Or do I choose different week preferences for my Secondary Vacation if I don't get any of the weeks I'd like in Primary?

Thanks, fellas.
