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

Satch/FTB,

Respectfully, I believe that you guys are misunderstanding the post. He was referring to Buzz's post, and was referencing "pre-bankruptcy/post-bankruptcy" pay rates, not "pre-merger/post-merger".

Easily confused, although I might be the one confused this early on a Monday morning. :rolleyes:

Fly safe,

GJ

Gotchya, thanks. I'll erase that pay table as it'll only add to the confusion.

FTB,

You are referencing the post bankruptcy contract figures whereas Roadie is referencing the pre-bankruptcy rates. Again, Buzz was saying that fNWA didn't lose any pay or retirement and the fDAL pilots lost a large amount from C2K. I think that the confusion lies in the higher payrates for fNWA equipment due to the merger contract but these rates are still significantly lower than our pre-bk contract.

Not sure if I am making any sense..... oh-well.....

Johnso,

Have a friend I flew with at my previous airline. Has done the Turks & Caicos Club Med resort now "multiple times", as he swears by it being the best in the Caribbean. I believe, and don't quote me on this, but also think we get a fairly decent airline discount if booked through "beaches.com"?

Someone else on here might know more of the details concerning the airline discount at Turks & Caicos.

Martha's Vineyard. Its in the 100s. I think Yankee stadium hit 110. Its like, for now, in the 70s in ATL while 87 in BOS. I don't know if I've ever watched fireworks like last night with a temp in the low 70s.

Also, July 4th, hot weather in New England, people desperate to go swim, USCG issuing warnings about increased great white shark activity in MA, where have I seen this?
