How do you know this? Are you just going on hearsay or is someone higher up noticing?

I must say that the north pilots are like kids in a candy store with the new sick policy, Just call in sick when you don't want to work and you never need a doctor note. Not like the notes you needed before after the first call. Don't like the new commute policy, that is ok just call in sick at the last minute. I wonder how long it will last before we lose it.

*Alert* Thread Drift from the regularly scheduled topic of AE/WN-FL merger.
Anyone been able to book a room at the "downtown" crew hotel in New York lately? (i.e. last couple of weeks?) I've called the front desk, even asked the supervisor, and keep getting the same answer of "we don't honor the Delta Crew Rate anymore." Even though our crews are still staying there? Reason I ask, I'm taking my girlfriend to the New York Metropolitan Opera, opening show of Boris Gudonov. Would've preferred staying at the above mentioned hotel. (Name left out for security reasons.) But, as mentioned, every time I've called, I've "hit a brick wall" with whomever I talked to. If your recent experience has been the same, any advice on how to find a decent hotel in Manhattan without worrying about the "bed bug" infestation? Thanks in advance. As always, fly safe, GJ |

Integrity is doing the right thing when no one is looking. Worrying about who or which former side is abusing this practice is a waste of time. |

Guys that have done it say go early on day 1, pay to have the bellhops watch your stuff, go play, then come back that night to sleep in your postage stamp room then next morning have the bellhops watch your stuff, go play, go get your stuff and go to the airport and freak out that even on your S2 you're number 67 of 112 on the nonrev list. So go on a Tuesday or something.

I was there in August on my own dime. I talked to a lady in the "front office" You have to by pass the front desk and reservations. When you call the hotel ask to speak to someone in the front office that deals with the airline crews.
Long story short I tried Priceline, Orbitz, et al and could not find a room in town for under $200 plus fees. I had called the hotel and been told the same thing about no discounts as you were when I talked to Reservations. I called back and talke to the front desk and they said it was the front office that dealt with that. Let me know what you find out I want to head back out in November with the wife. PS I was the one who sent in the info to Crew Guide so as of August it was good.

Boris Gudonov? Wasn't he the bad guy in Rocky and Bullwinkle? He sings opera now? Nice career change! Maybe there's a message there for all of us.;)
Yeah, I know it was Boris Badinoff but I couldn't resist. Sorry dude.

Check your PMs
Thanks for the responses. I'll try the info PM'd by JetFlyer tomorrow and see if I have any success. FTB - Was really, secretly trying to get the first post of page #4900. Again, and with unyielding consistency, you continue to STILL BE THE MAN!! I'm assuming that they're going to have a Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade float, in honor of your efforts on APC Forums. Caddis - I'll let you know what I find out when talking to the "front office" tomorrow. All the times that I've asked to speak with someone, it's either been a front desk person, front desk supervisor, or reservations. Buzz - Personally, I'd rather see Boris Badinoff and his rendition at the New York Met. Not so sure my lady friend would agree, but I'm into seeing Boris & "Natasha Fatale" (a pun on femme fatale) at it again. JetFlyer - PM sent in return, thanks for the info. V/R, GJ |

Back it up with facts or let this one die. Pineapple Guy will be along in a few to admonish the bad apples. :eek: |

Also, you need to know that at NWA if a guy was sick and needed a doctors note, then he'd just go get one. It's really not a big deal. If one is sick, then they're sick. Stop trying to alienate the North side, and let management do their job. If there are people abusing the system, then they will find them. Your post is pointless and divisive. |

Everything is hearsay, per say but this isn't from cockpit talk if that is what you are getting at. I bet money our "policy" is on the block to change due to the abuse.
I agree with the others. Lame attempt. If you are going to be devisive, go big, early, and say you don't like North guys because they wear funny shoes and eat bleached fish. This penny ante stuff marks you as a poser. Nu |

Nu Good news for sure, where/when did you hear that? Ferd <------just one of "those north guys who _____________________" Oh well, the good news is every southie I know/fly with is a great guy. It's only the occasional web thug who seems to want me to just go away. |

Nu Gotta get it right. :) We only eat bleached fish (otherwise known as Lutefisk) if it's soaked in butter and accompanied by some Lefse. Perfect time of the year for everyone to take part in a Lutefisk/Lefse feed at their local church in the Northland.:D GJ |
