I need to get to George Town, Bahamas. Cape Air doesn't serve it. DAL Connection serves it from ATL, but only once a day. I was looking for back ups. I can get there through NAS on Bahamasair.

Bingo!

fwiw, on ATL88B 43 out of 49 pilots available tomorrow or 5 days or less have a raw score < 80. If you take into account that each pilot sits 2 SCs by now, then even by adding 10 points to each pilot you have 40 out of 49 with raw scores below 80. Meanwhile today a weekend, 0 pilots. 2 pilots are on the list but they're probably flying. Daily coverage shows 5 out of 8 trips today were GS.

Thanks All....Baja.

Like Orvil said, no. No "selling of vacations", it's one of those provisions DALPA has in the PWA to protect ourselves from... ourselves.

Rumor alert. Just had a DL jumpseater tell me he recently had a linecheck and the checkairman said he just went to some big linecheck meeting in Mecca and a VERY high up guy stated we were looking to maybe buy back the DFW hanger and maybe get some gates back. Aren't we getting some MD90s this year?
