So you guys that have been around the block a few times, I have a question. Today I received a call for a Gslip of show immediately we are holding the plane for you type. Didn't have anything to do so I said yes and grabbed a few things and headed to the airport. As I was walking in they call and say its CNX'd and that I have to stay in base (I live there so no prob) and I'm on call for the next 6 hours for 23K?
This was originally an off day. So this Gslip can be converted to a RSV assignement even for a REG line holder? Doesn't matter I guess they never called, but wondering If this makes a difference in my pay.

If it helps it says 23K and a G like a usual Gslip on the next 2 days of my schedule? :confused:

Gotta buy a ticket for an extended family member from ATL-DEN tomorrow, guess who is cheapest!?

Frontier: $279
AirTran: $283
Delta: $283

Just for fun, also looked at DEN-DTW

Frontier: $276
United: $357
Delta: $367


Good thing they aren't STS with Shuttle America, Chataqua, and Republic! I mean, Frontier can't afford to stand on its own at those prices!!


edit: here's a few more gems:

LAX-MCI: Frontier $306, Delta$454
LGA-MC: Frontier $280, Delta$288
MSP-MCI: Frontier $246, Delta $270
SLC-DEN: Frontier $143, Delta $147
DEN-MSP: Frontier $175, Delta $282
BOS-MCI: Frontier $231, Delta $469
MCI-AUS: Frontier: $256, Delta $310
MCI-MSY: Frontier: $237, Delta $241

I can totally see why the labor groups had to take concessions.

So if ALPA sucks so bad, why is Jet Blue management so scared of it? Are you some sort of management stooge posting their propaganda here?

FTB you're busted. Get back to the 4th floor so Alfa can suck up to you! Stat!:eek:

So captains should have one union and F/O another. Old pilot one union and young pilots another. Because of the conflict of interests.

Or perhaps we can see ourselves not as tribes, but as members of a profession working together and pooling our resources to protect our common interests, but yet giving each bargaining unit the autonomy to elect their own reps, who elect their own officers and negotiators, to set their own negotiating priorities and then evaluate each contract and if it satisfies their pilots priorities, ratify their own agreements. Hmmmm. Maybe that's the ticket.

Wait a minute!!! Wait just one minute!

Are you trying to tell me that 83.3% of operating income is spent on DAL,FDX,UAL and CAL? According to your link only 4% is spent on the tier B carriers?

That just can't be!

Why Carl and the DPA shills keep telling us our dues money goes to the regionals.

Sorry, FTB, your link just has to be wrong, because the DPA would never mislead us.:rolleyes:

Xtreme, I am on Mil LV and it has been a while, so I am a little fuzzy on the rules; however, I'll take a shot at it. Once you accepted the Gslip it became part of your sked. The company has to pay you for it. Since it was then cnx, Mother D has 6 hrs to assign you something new so they can get some work out of you for all that overtime pay they owe you. If they don't assign you anything within that time, you are off until your next trip and you get paid as if you executed the Gslip trip. Free Money Brutha! I think I am real close on that but I'm sure the experts on here can correct if I'm wrong.

Buy this model setup and you can feel like you are at work even when you're at home!

Maybe they should build airports where you have to takeoff and land through a square hole like this. Keep things interesting.

Took me a while to get back to you on this one FTB. I was on a four day. Got another short call tomorrow, but shouldn't get anything thrown my way with 69.2 hours for the month now. Envy your seniority...someday I'll have a low RAW score like that.:D

Alfa.

ACL posted this below on page 7246 before I made my post:

It really made no sense because who in the heck made that? Jetblue has 0 furloughs? Who cares? What is this?

So I right clicked for the source because I couldn't figure out what this thing was (pro or against ALPA) and it came up as a jetblue website. So 5 posts later I posted some of their more pertinent stuff. Not hard to do. Took a few seconds.

I hate to say it, but after a few second look back I noticed your last post on this thread was 7202. As a technique - just a technique - start at 7202 and work forward and you could've asked ACL why he posts Jetblue stooge stuff. ;)
