Good luck trying to get any money out of the government right now, but it can be done, depending where you live. Check out this site for specifically getting a 737 type.

As for airline I am considering going to Gojet for the 8 month upgrade.
I'm not even going to touch that one...

Please don't do it.

Anyone want to go to Colorado and ski the week of Jan12-16th? I'm thinking Breckenridge and Arapahoe Basin...possibly Copper Mountain also.

Oh yeh I get to do recurrent ground for the 70 in Dec and transition to the 50 in Jan. Way to go Comair way to save money. While I might still have a job, waiting for a 8 year upgrade to be a reserve at JFK just isn't going to happen for me. This place is in the toilet!

You said it, i don't see how anyone could possibly deny that this company is circling the drain.

I'm going to send an email to Bendoveritis or whatever his name is, and personally shame him for sending out a furlough notice on thanksgiving eve. It's deplorable and frankly, shows how little tact this management team has.

Comair, you digust me.

whats even funnier is that comair is displacing FOs from JFK to CVG (which they will have to pay for) for 19 whole days. Way to go accounting.

Good point, i think the utter disregard for financial responsibility in terms of the EXTREMLEY costly downgrades (then furloughs), displacements (then furloughs), downgrades (then transitions) makes me sick.

I think it's yet another indicator that mgmt isn't concerned about the cost of things easily in their control, they'd rather cut hams.

Up next, Chapter 7

I guess I am missing something...how can the costly downgrades, displacements, and furloughs be avoided by Comair management when Delta dictates what flying Comair is allowed to have?

Early retirements, voluntary furloughs, multi-month colas, to name a few.
