Sorry. Couldn't resist!!!

Here's the deal - the landside parking for commuters is on the "wink and nod" system.
The TSA apparently doesn't have a problem because it does not bypass security.
As long as commuters aren't using the airside lot, the feds don't care.
If there's no security issue, it doesn't matter to them if you ride to the terminal on an employee bus or a commercial parking lot bus or the back of a Harley. What's the difference?

That leaves Delta management.

Its a gray area with the company. Please don't force the issue. Just be discrete and don't abuse it.
A lot of ATL commuters would be upset if you ended up causing strict enforcement.

Check E is right!!!!! Like I said 20 pages ago, use Landside, park your car there, go through security, life is good.

I liked E Smith until I heard that he went back to Pensacola where he went to high school, and charged the local kids for his autographs. Personally, I think that is pretty low class.

Shades of the PPA back in '94-'95, huh?

A point you can glean from these numbers is how important LGA is for Delta and AirTran. As much as the focus has been on SWA and Delta in Atlanta, SWA real prize is New York.

Now there is no reason for the DOT to continue to block our slot swap. Further, the DOT now has to deal with SWA having 90% of BWI and around 70% of MCO. So far, LaHood has not said a "cluck."
Good read. Boyd is kind of a loud-mouth self-promoter, but I think he's right a lot more than he's wrong.
