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

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."

whoa...... That doesn't seem right to me. Can you post the note here?

Please refrain from POLITICAL posts. It's a violation of TOS, plus we have enough to discuss & debate on this thread. ;)

OMG.....................That's a joke right?

Come on folks!!! Are some of us going to get wrapped around the axle about what DCI says on there flights? Don 't we have more pressing issues in our own house to be worrying about DCI?
I understand the angst, I just don't agree that it needs to go to the union and have their time wasted on DCI pa's instead of fixing our own problems.
Just trying to see the big picture here:rolleyes:

I should have made myself more clear. It was not a political post, & KC10Fatboy did not get in trouble. It wasn't even directed at him, otherwise I would have quoted him.

I was just making a general statement to hopefully prevent what could come about. Perhaps a bit premature on my part, but just wanted to throw it in there. :)

I haven't seen any memo's about this. You may want to check your source. The thing I hate is that mangement want our FA's to say our first and last name. Why do the pax need that much information?

Do you want your doctors first name only?

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:

Gotta say I love that quote too!! Although I have violated it many, many times!!!:D

But to ask you the question: At what point would YOU become concerned about who is calling themselves "Delta Air Lines"? would you care if Comair suddenly started this? How about Air France (when they are flying to/from the USA) This has a real parallel to scope in my mind, but I could be wrong.
