Actually in my experience the Delta ramp guys are pretty good. I hardly have to wait for a crew. 90% of the time they are there when we show up. That ain't bad. Maybe its just the stations I go to...

Is it really going to have SEA 320 on it?

Apparently you haven't been in DTW, I guess they they are former NWA... I don't think I could move that slow if I tried.

I'll see your hunch and raise you next Monday.

Good news, always on Monday. Bad news, always on Friday. Immediate news during the week is either stuff that doesn't matter, or information already printed in the USA Today.

Yeah but that means someone has to plan and check and do all that over the weekend to put it out on monday, so I think this afternoon or tomorrow at the lastest, plus "IF" CVG is dramatically shrunk, gotta give it the weekend to fester.

I was able to lock it into my AE preferences so I believe it will.

Also adding 800 320 pilots to LAX and dropping all Alaska codeshare agreements.

OK, lay down those cards! I don't care if you do win the pot :)
