Exactly. Kind of like how after one meltdown a few years ago we all got PS passes, but then another meltdown happened a little later and no PS passes.

It's looking like I'm gonna have to rent a car for 7-10 days in MCI and turn it in at STL. Any one know of any discounts etc. I can get? Thanks.

I have had good luck with Hertz using the Delta corporate discount code that you can get from DeltaNet in the discount section.

Hope you get to enjoy some Jack Stack burnt ends and perhaps a Boulevard "The Calling" Double IPA.

Joe’s Kansas City BBQ has best bbq and it’s less expensive. Go to the one on 47th. Don’t be fooled by the fact it’s in a gas station.

Oh yeah....Joe's is da bomb.

However, Denny is a 330 Captain. And we all know how those 330 Captains have quite high culinary standards. 😁

And my waistline can prove it!

Actually my wife and I are going to Ft. Riley to visit our youngest and lend moral support to him while he PCS’s from there to Ft Leonard Wood. He’s a 1LT in the Army.

I’m looking at nonreving to MCI then renting a car/truck. I’d like to turn it in in STL because it looks closer to FLW but may just drive the extra hour or two and return it back to MCI. I’d save a couple hundred bucks.

Default Regain currency

Say you're NQ due to currency as a reserve, can the company unilaterally just assign you a sim during your upcoming X days. Don't we have any say on not working during our days off? Seems weird that several "on call" days go by with no training, then first X days.....bam!

Sounds like you had/have a recency problem. Did you get the pop up that asks you for a 15 day (I think) window to schedule it? I don’t know what the rules are if you go noncurrent but I suspect they can do it.

On the bright side you should get paid more for doing it on days off versus on call days. I know that doesn’t help if you had plans…
