Reserve GS question
If you get a three day GS and the first day is your only X day, how is that paid?

Don't think they haven't figured this out too though LOL. However this will require "negotiating capital" to fix and its a pretty low priority item anyway even for perennial reserves.

For example:
On X day, you fly LGA-BUF. It is one hour block. You will only be paid an extra one hour for picking up the entire three day GS.
Buyer Beware. Ask me how I know this.

I support doing that, but its going to be a costed negotiating item.

Heading to upgrade training in March. Last trip captain advised me to get a rental car primarily for psychological well-being purposes. Which I totally get. Has anyone done this? Any pitfalls or suggestions? I live too far to drive my airport car out there and I think my regular routine of "walk wherever I want to go, whenever I want to because screw the criminals" may just be pushing my luck a little. I'm seeing $900ish on travelocity for the month.

Might see if you can get a discount with a 30 day rental. Prob have to call.
Or, would it be cheaper to get 5 day rentals?
Also, look on delta perks. There are some rental car discounts there.
Good luck
