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

DCI came out with some kind of edict last summer to drop the "Connection" in the DCI PAs. The folks at my airline identified the request as unlawful, but by the time they got the word back to DCI some of the other carriers were already reading off the new script.

Maybe your Compass guy never saw the retraction?

I am sorry, but this is just NUTS! (thanks Herb Kelleher) Slowplay, take this to your leader, and repeat "Help me, help YOU." Those 737 rates should be our 737 rates, and then higher for bigger. Remember, 'HELP ME, HELP YOU."

I'm sure someone has asked before, but when do they run the vacation move ups? I had vacation in Oct and want to move it up a week the same month. I just put the request in last week. When is the earliest I can expect a result and at what date do I know I didn't get it? Thanks all as I've never tried this.

If you are lucky enough, you can bump in to him as he is flying first class from ATL to TPA on his First Class tickets.

He seems really busy with his board member duties of a given airline that I have a lot of interest in. :rolleyes:

Not trying to change the subject on future contract and etc. I was commuting in this morning on Compass and all the PA's from the cockpit were " blah blah thank you for flying DELTA...." no mention of Delta Connection. Did I miss a memo, can DCI avoid using Delta Connection?:confused:

Send your reps an email. This will be taken care of quickly.

I am told that the NC is trying to get comparisons for AF and KLM, but it's a longer term project as their application of rules and costing models are completely different. Plus they're contracts are in French and Dutch.:eek:

Again, SWA is in the comparison, but Airtran is not.

There is an app for that! :D

There's no chance that's not a photoshop, anyways. The airplane is actually holding speed....
