Just checked DeltaNet....there most certainly IS an A/E out. Just a very small one. I would have thought for sure that the next A/E would've closed the MEM DC-9 base. Still hangin' on. And thankful.

Surpluses-

ATL777B-15



Should cause some good cascading in the right direction overall. Not sure how the 777 surplus will hit ATL though.
just a guess, but Los was supposed to go back to ATL777 in October but now its staying on atl330. Seems like an AE to staff 12+ hour block times correctly on both airplanes (a330 acc-atl, los-atl, lax-hnd). I would not be surprised to see some commuting ATL330 bid back to DTW330 now that they got to experience ugly trips for commuters, short trips and being on reserve while bidding #7 in base. I am very glad I did not bid atl330.

Trip parking?

If so, there ya go why that needs to end. Congrats for scheming the system, hate it for the guys you're doing trips with.

If this is the case and even if it isn't , it's only a matter of time before the math kicks people off.

The Friday night document dump includes an AE. Yuck.

Ah, there it is. A little birdy told me one was coming this week. Glad to see the 330 openings.

ah, Just got an email from Crew Resources with more details... I won't post it here, but I'm sure it will be up on DLnet if people didn't get it.

Looks like another bid will be out October-ish to a set up for the summer 2012 block hours... as per said memo. Interesting!

Delta will start new nonstop seasonal service between Fukuoka, Japan and Honolulu, beginning Dec. 28. With this service, Delta will be the only carrier to offer scheduled nonstop flights between the two cities.
We are almost back to the full HNL-Japan schedule that NWA had in the mid 90's. Now if we could just reinstate HNL-SYD and HNL-ICN...

Overall positive bid movement. Not large, but still a nice way to start the weekend.
