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

Probably be one of the first to go when they can't fill it up with AA passengers from the OneWorld Alliance. Don't think we can fill one up out of there quite yet.

Agreed. It is about timing......

Left to right, top row only and fill in the first 8 blocks and make sure the last date to process is correctly done.

Satch, lol and there would be more from where that came from if I the term "gamble and lose" wasn't hitting home right now.

Do we have enough 757s to spare for a freighter operation? What about the 763 domestic birds?

Not sure we would want to do that with them. We could cut holes in em but have other ideas for those birds.

It brought home yet again how fortunate we are to work for an airline that appears to be run by adults.

(For the moment. The current team's gonna leave eventually, and we can only hope that the next group won't be thieves or Bozos.)

Amen...I have a few bros that were hired around the same time I was at NWA that quit and went to United before they finished new-hire training. It made perfect sense at the time, but now they are on the street with pretty dim prospects. You never know how it's going to turn out, and you don't know if you chose correctly until you're done. Who could have predicted the turns and twists over the last 12 years?

Of course it will swing the other way some day too, and we must all remember that.

To move xdays go to PCS, Leave Requests, select the correct bid period in the window, click on the last type of leave request "Move Reserve Off Days", click Add/Update, put in the day(s) you currently have OFF and THEN put in the days you WANT off.

If you want the 13-14th off and currently have the 25-26th off then put in 25FEB - 26 FEB to 13 FEB - 14 FEB. FWIW, it won't accept it if you put it in backwards, it knows what days off you have so thats a good thing. If you want just the 13th off and want to exchange the 25th then its 25FEB - 25FEB to 13FEB - 13FEB.

BTW, I fart in your general direction. ;)

Thanks for writing that in a language Satch don't understand so that I can keep the days I want off.

All times are GMT -8. The time now is 10:08 AM.
