ACL not pointing fingers. I sincerely did not see the parts that should not have been shown on here on the pics I posted. I took a few days off of here to think about my wrongs. This place is like crack though, read a few posts and you're hooked.

Delta is going to pay profit sharing this year. Final numbers will be announced January 25, but preliminary shows 4.5% of your salary from 2011.

"Great?"

ALPA, let's get our compensation guaranteed instead of tied to "profits." I don't fly any less safely or slack off when Delta doesn't make a profit. I should be paid accordingly.

Update 12-02 LOA 29 Implementation - Seniority on Reserve

Very good update just posted on new Reserve Utilization Order guidelines and Raw Score Buckets. Two real positive changes are:
  • Specific trip preferences for Yellow Slips, to be awarded by seniority
  • Short Call is now credited towards raw score
Good job to the MEC Scheduling Comm.

Not so good for junior people in category, it's now guaranteed you will work every available day until you can hit 81 points and get into the second bucket.

Whining.

I want to be paid more than a SWA pilot (again). Petulant pouting won't get me there.

Oh, if you want to see bankruptcy payrates, look at USAirways and United. Guys like Carl are paid $35 bucks an hour more than their peer on the same airplane at UAL, and that's without any international override. Oh, and Carl's 23 years of pension are still there, unlike the UAL guy.

United has been amendable for 2 years (January 2010). Continental has been amendable longer. AMR has been in negotiations since July, 2006. See a pattern?

The slot swap should increase Delta's revenues by $200 million. While the initial number of mainline flights was disappointing I think we're far better off long term having those slots rather than LUV, jetBlue or another competitor having them. If you'd like to return them let me know how that works out for you.

Oh, Delta pilot compensation increased another $100 million January 1. That's in addition to profit sharing. I want more, but whining won't get it for you.


Yes - the compensation did go up $100 million. But calling it an "increase" could be considered subjective. You could just as easily call it a "partial recovery" depending on your baseline dates.

I know this has been covered before, but I'm asking again. MMC stands for Mid Month Conversion, yes? My training starts 1/15 and should end 2/15. That means I should get my new category pay starting on 2/1, correct?

Not really - it will still be broken down by Days of availability before raw comes into play. A 3 day trip still won't go to a 4 day guy unless there aren't any 3 day people left.

I'm not sure if I will like it or not, but I definitely like that a 1 point difference doesn't trump seniority, and I also definitely like that it will be easier to YS now.

This is another reason we should be able to see the true reserves available list for the entire month, not just the current and next day (when it's too late to make any X day changes).
