No, a yellow slip gives you nothing extra, no extra pay, no extra day off. All it says is that I want that trip or that you'd fly on a day off (at no extra pay).

The cruise lines typically don't let you take those kinds of liquids on board. I hear refilling mouthwash bottles might work well....hypothetically.....

The -200 has a bunk below the aft galley. The -300 has some with a flatbed seat and some with a bunk by the 3L door. All -300 are supposed to get the bunk. The bunk is nice, but the trip to/from can be a hassle during service or cleanup. There is no dedicated sitting area or TV to watch and the @Rest WiFi reception is spotty down in the bunk.

Disney of all lines does. Must be carry on only. Check your clothes, bathroom stuff etc. I hear that you can fit a case of Shiner and a bottle of Scotch in a Purdy Neat bag

I've been looking for the "When scheduling calls" handbook on the EFB and the DALPA site. Can't find it either place, anyone have a clue where it's at.

Thanks

Simply drinking mouthwash saves a lot of time.

Heyas FB,

That document has been retired. What you want is the "Scheduling Reference Handbook".

It's on the DALPA site. Log into ALPA.ORG, and select DAL MEC from the "My MEC/LEC" pulldown menu. Select "Committees" and click on "Scheduling Reference Handbook". That will take you to the link to download it.
