oh good to know.... kinda weird they would give up gates at our "main base".... but i guess theres a reason.

Ha so true. They conveniently left a time line off of those 1000 airplanes since I will probably be retired by the time that happens IF it ever happens. If I had to guess I would say they put together that LFDR slide show with the NK merger and their planes in mind and just forgot to take it out. Now SC is using it as a recruiting tool that is totally irrelevant. Ya SC…I also hope to have 1000 million dolla dolla bills by the time I retire too….

You WILL have 1000 million dolla dolla bills because F9 doesn’t prevent you from flying over 85 hours like that big meanie Delta! That’s right, you can fly 120 hours and make just as much as them.

Delta restricts you to 85 hours?

It was also said that Delta’s contract is no good as they’re cap at 85 credit hours…so….yeah….I had to hang up…

My FO did the math the other day. We would have to credit like 115 hours to match the pay of their new contract at 85 hours.

If you ignore that profit sharing averages another 15% on top of their rates…..
