When I jumpseated out of JFK on a previous airline I worked for I never had a problem with jumpseating. It was ORD and a GO-JET flight when I had my problem. I had to fly to KCI, first come first served, introduced myself to the captain said I could go, then his buddy shows up. Guess what happened?

You hit the nail on the head. Hope this rumor about increase in hours is true. Maybe Delta is about to be rid of "Messa" once and for all, then maybe, just maybe, Comair can start well can't say growth, but new A/C and the furloughees coming back would be nice. How the conference call go?

Anything other than the direction we have been going is a positive thing.

From the call, I gather they they are looking at how many people accept this Early Out/55 Point Program. There is a displacement soon to come out and it will depend on how many people accept this program before they now about additional downgrades/furloughs.
