And if that happens, do you agree that ALPA should file a grievance or otherwise pursue the fact that Delta is not in compliance with our scope clause?

$250/euro per wouldn't last long. The world economies couldn't survive at that price. We saw the tipping point before at $140. All the monarchies in the Middle East are in jeopardy.

Maybe a cutoff of supply in that region would spur our government to allow domestic production...

Nah, not this bunch.

How do you go about doing that? I looked around there and wasn't able to peek at mine.

It only means that if DALPA fights for it legally. How many of us think DALPA will even try?

They had a 744 and a 777 on it last year. I have not looked at the advance skeds to see if they are doing that now. I would venture not since there are other frequencies we would do first.

You can go to PCS, and then try to swap a trip. Before you do it, go look at your sked and scroll down. If loaded it will show your next months sked as well.

They are debating drilling is Alaska again, but the reality is that this would take a few years to get on-line.

Aren't they going to have an election when they officially combine? Frontier and Midwest are not Teamsters. ALPA will probably try to get in there.

Hear! Hear!

Jet Airways Asked to Join AF-KLM, Delta JV
 

By ANIRBAN CHOWDHURY

MUMBAI – Jet Airways (India) Ltd. has been asked by Air France-KLM, U.S. carrier Delta Air Lines Inc. and Italian carrier Alitalia to join their transatlantic joint venture, a senior executive at India's largest carrier by market share said recently.

"We are still studying the feasibility of joining such a venture," the executive, who didn't want to be named, said. "There is no final decision yet."

The executive said Jet Airways will need to consider its current partnerships with other airlines worldwide before arriving at any decision on joining the venture.

The venture between the four airlines will likely include operational partnerships such as code-sharing on airline tickets, cooperation on client reward programs as well as other services such as engineering on some overseas routes, the Jet Airways executive said.

Joining such an alliance would likely help Jet Airways to cost-effectively expand its overseas operations, leveraging the global network of the three other airlines instead of deploying its own aircraft.

It would also pave the way for the Mumbai-based airline to enter the SkyTeam Alliance--a 13-member global airline group led by Delta and Air France-KLM.

National carrier Air India Ltd. plans to join Frankfurt-based Star Alliance, the biggest airline group in the world, while Kingfisher Airlines Ltd. will soon join the Oneworld alliance.

Jet Airways, with its two units JetLite and Jet Airways Konnect, has a fleet of 116 planes from Boeing Co., Airbus, ATR and Bombardier Inc. and operates flights to 49 local and 24 international destinations. It currently has Brussels as its international hub.
