Bar,

Use the whole quote....

Now you know the joy of people taking your quotes out of context and adding a little dig about your professionalism.

Waiting for your apology, but not expecting it.

Ice you're right as this will be the first realignment, but ATL is not congested. The flying out of here is increasing but being done by crews not only from ATL but NYC, CVG, LAX, SLC, and DTW 744 and 330 crews. And if the rumor is right then the 320 and 9 should be here soon doing fly throughs with no base. This is the realignment of 765s and the elimination of the 767 category. The problem for ATL pilots is no 330 base on this AE so seats go out but don't come in. I think we really wish we had a 320 or 9 base in this AE but we didn't get anything but a kick in the privates.

Our best or only hope here in ATL is they decide to go fat. But I'm not planning on it. Jew Gardens here I come!

HA! iPhone autocorrects typing, type Kew and it replaces it with Jew. Funny.

Exactly my point. DAL wants to keep the FAs from unionizing. So everything the pilots negotiate, they give to the FAs... "see, you don't need a union, we're giving this to you."

No way the company can afford to give the NWA call-in-honest to the FAs, so they won't give it to us.

However, the disclaimer is, it could be worse. I'd rather be an employed Delta pilot with these problems than an unemployed UAL, AMR, CAL, LCC with their problems.

And if you decide to commute, you have a gazillion mainline jets. Try getting to work on a Brazila in the summer.

While being sympathetic to the plight of the ATL based bubbas, I for one, am glad to see an AE that has more openings than surplusses! Each one prior to this for has been neutral.

Love the fact that conversions start on 1 Jan 10 but the list won't be out until that date at the earliest and they have to give 30 days notice prior to conversions.
