Airline Pilot Central Forums - Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

South guys,

Can you tell me how the trips in the bid packets are organized? I don't see the logic. They seem to be all over the place. At NW they were organized from longest to shortest and then by credit time within the group. I.E. 5 day trips were listed from highest credit to least. Made it easier to flip through the packet to find what you wanted and ignore the rest.

Thanks,

Gnewt

They're organized by report time

Just got the call from Crew Resources and they did make a mistake on my bid. They said they have reviewed the entire bid. Offered me a choice of excepting the bid I was originally awarded, or to take the corrected award. Because of personal reasons (this has been a difficult choice) I opted to take the original award. Which means a pilot junior to me in SLC should be very happy today. They made things right. So, good on them and thanks to CR for doing such a good job. :cool:

Why is Mr. Bastian (and his group) on his way to NRT? They should be lifting off about now...

Rhetorical I know, but why do you think they are on the way there? :rolleyes:

I just got a call, also. They said that after going through the bid again, I should not have been MD'd and that I would be able to stay in my position.

We got the tie up with JAL. Roughly 50% of the Pacific will have DAL code on it. This is what's pumping our stock today.

Now to learn who's going to do that flying. Exciting stuff ...

See my post above yours, unless you are talking about the sale on Beef Udon at Terminal 1 :)
