Stupid question, does having to gate check 20+ bags per flight really help the operation? Do you think it will impact future bookings / loyalty? I personally think DAL made a big error when we decided to charge for bags and aligned ourselves with NWA (not knocking NWA ... just saying). I see the profit potential in charging for bags, but I think the 2nd increase is not good for our passengers. Any thoughts? Well, when it give the company 130 million plus a year in revenue, yes it is a good business decision. They are even talking about charging ppl at the gate with those hand held FOB's. Not DAL per se but airlines in general. Get off of price line and do it the way WN does and maybe you can play that game. |

Exactly. Filing claims like this doesn't exactly help matters. The irony comes from the fact that the claim states that the 777 is replacing 742 flying.
When was the last time you saw a 742 in DTW on a regular basis? Not to mention flying the point to point legs they are doing. What a waste of money and energy.

Both the North and the South though an assessment, have paid one million each in to a fund for these types of things. There goes your money.

MY LIVING WILL Last night, my kids and I were sitting in the living room and I said to them, 'I never want to live in a vegetative state, dependent on some machine and fluids from a bottle. If that ever happens, just pull the plug.' They got up, unplugged the Computer, and threw out my beer. They're such *********s ... |

That's not the one going to arbitration. The 742 one is being "studied". The DRC has no control over who files what.
Reading comprehension was never one of my strong points... |
