Here's something that has me fuming for the day.... Pinnacle Airlines put out a memo to all pilots and FAs to not say "Delta Connection" and especially not use "Pinnacle Airlines" on PA's.

What do they want them to say instead? You guessed it... only say "Delta" or "Delta Air Lines."

What is that?!! Hopefully it's a new hire tie.

I believe the term is "power tie"... but "new-hire tie" rolls off the tongue a little better I think :)

Heard about this too. I will be calling my reps tomorrow to see if this is OK. We need to get a copy of that memo, although, what I heard was that they are supposed to say, "Delta flight XXX."

Denny,

That's a good quote to live by. Someone might also benefit from a quote by our 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln, when he stated:

"It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt."

Not aimed at anyone in particular. Just something that most can take something from.

GJ :cool:

Oh we can talk about the goberment, just not the parties. We could talk about the new health care legislation, but not about the parties. Of course that may last a post or two. :eek:

We just control what is painted on their jets, not what comes out of their mouths.

Seamless service. Come on, it was the PA announcements that made people realize they were flying third party operators. :rolleyes:

Really? That was considered a political post?
