The Air Wisconsin crew who landed 5 minutes in front of us last week. Even after the hotel van driver told them we were staying at the same hotel, they convinced him to leave. 25 minute round trip.

I don’t believe in karma...but I’m pretty sure when you act like tools, others will treat you as such.

Before 117 min rest that was 100% legit at the regional level.

Did you adjust their wake up calls when you got there? Sometimes karma is self-service...

Default Companion Pass Rider TOTD

This lady, on a companion pass, posts a cursing rant to a Facebook against AA after being denied boarding for inappropriate attire. Actually records herself cursing AT the gate agents.

If I was the employee who let her use my companion pass, I’d be slightly miffed.

And you don’t think a Delta crew has ever done that to someone else? Before I was at Delta, I had a a Captain tell us we should take the next van. We left in the first van.

How about we wait 10 minutes for another crew (same airline), then they dash off as soon as the van parks at the hotel....... just so they can get to the sign-in sheet before us. I’ve seen this many times. Some guys aren’t smart, others are self centered.

The problem with "the next crew will be here in 5 minutes" that in my personal experience that is a lie 100% of the time. Sign up for 5 and you're stuck for 15 (and then after 15 you end up leaving without the other crew anyway). Don't blame the other crew, it's the transportation providers who don't provide adequate vehicles and then are unable to give a proper estimate that are the problem.
