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

I have about 14 flights between LGA and JFK, to work with, and there are times in the evening where it is critical when a trip gets assigned. I do have ways to make it in if they call at 9pm, but it's a Planes, Trains and Automobiles scenario to make it for a 9am show.

Not that it's happened much, but it can, and I wouldn't want to risk my job. I think making to DTW on long call with 3 Pinnacle RJs a day is a serious gamble. I'm working with 14 flights - mostly mainline flights where I can reserve the jumpseat on those mainline flights.

Everyone who commutes on reserve has a "witching hour." I was hoping the time change and living in AZ (no DST) would help a little; not one bit. I plan on being gone a lot as I have to double to get to MSP.

Yup. I would not be comfortable in that situation.
Better to have a crash pad until you can hold a line. Especially on probation.

Maybe it's different internationally, but seeing flight crews in full uniform in the hotel lobby or on the shuttle is somewhat of a giveaway.

Give away or not, discussing on a public forum where crews stay is not the wisest of actions.

Note ... I said where we USED to stay.

I know that. I said it so that when someone responded that they did not use the new hotel's name. :D
