It is a New year, is the union negotiating or even talking to delta about a pay raise?

30$ per hour it very low for FO 1st year pay, so low that I never pick up open time, not worth the time away from home.

Open time pays $45-60/HR. How much per hour is your family/home life worth?

There's a LaQuinta by the airport, I want to say the crew rate is $45 ish but not positive. Some questionable clientele at times, but the employees always treated me well and it was clean/quiet.

I don't think I'd ca it good, but the La Quinta on Nicolett is adequate. It runs $48.00 before taxes. And they have a shuttle and some kind of breakfast in the morning

oh I've enjoyed many a lady of the evening in that establishment. They let them right up to the room. It's all in good fun.

Yeah stayed there a few times. It's... clean. $54 after taxes. There is a Culver's in the parking lot and some other food options up the street. You have to call to get the Crew rate.

La Quinta is fine. See plenty of crew (mainline and RJ) and the staff are accommodating. Can walk to the Walmart and other restaurants. Rooms were clean and not far from the airport. Rate was fine. Had quite a few of us there last year while temporarily MSP based. No complaints.
