I count that as getting kicked off. |

Wow. Looks like a RAW deal. Great.
This Open Skies thing is HUGE for Delta. Or rather could be a huge problem, but most are only concerned with the AE. Im a bit surprised by the lack of interest on this? |

I'm hoping it'll all shake out in a good way for us, but just looking at the press release it looks like we may come out the worst.:( |

Yeah well unfortunately the other mantra that seems firmly entrenched in ATL is "What are you willing to give up for..." So I'll be shocked if this policy changes before the returns of the dinosaurs. (Not the DC9 version :D)
Maybe we can get some things "gone," too. (without giving anything up) :D New K Now |
Free Bird,
I think it is a matter of prioritization. We're trying to figure out the recall items for the immediate "forced displacement, divert to other than planned destination" before we deal with the "volcanic ash from international eruption" threat that's on the horizon. Along those lines, now that we've all said "OH CRAP!" and Canceled the warning, can we exchange information useful for dealing with this checklist? There are a lot of us that have never done this before, who planned our lives to avoid it, but now we have to deal with it. Since it looks like future bids will make any quick moves look long term stupid, what about intel on commuting to the junior bases: (1) Are there quick convenient hotels with transport near DTW / MSP / NYC / MEM ? (2) Approximate cost ? (3) Current and Former Commuters, can you tell us your strategies? Go in the day before? How much of a pad do you give yourself going from one base to another? Do you call and reserve the JS the second you can & when is that? (4) What's DC9 / MD88 / A320 training like? |
On FOM news, Call in Honest lives on. FOM Chapter 11 section 5. Looks like something from old NW makes the grade with delta.

Reference DFW. ATL will be the new commuting nightmare. |
