There is NO S in GoJet!!! :p

It's like saying COMAIRS or MESAS!! NO "S"


Now... Continue please! ;)

Speaking of GoJet without the "s"... talked to a Delta buddy of mine who was furloughed from TSA and he brought up something I forgot. TSA was a Delta Con carrier back in the day and I guess they were kicked out of it for being awful or something and Grinstein said he'd never have them back.

Just like when one of our pilots check on with ATC & say Deltas XXXX level 350. What are you? A flight of two? It's DELTA. :D

Question for Delta pilots, Did every Northwest Captain keep their status when they came to Delta? Also what year is the most Junior Captain? Thanks

Initially yes. No one was kicked out of the left set as a result of the merged seniority list.

I don't see anywhere to mount a tablet in there. Looks like they'll have to issue each pilot one. It's cozy in there. :D

Do you mean, did any captian lose their seat during the SLI? No, every captain kept their seat.

Now, with that said, subsequently, the company started moving planes and flying around. Since the only fence was at the top, 747/777, everything else was fair game. Some junior captains got displaced, but were pay protected. This was in accordance with the CBA and their seniority, and was as it should be.

The most junior captain is somewhere around early 1999, I think. Someone with easier access to a category list can be more precise.
