C'mon man. Don't be dogging Perfect North - the best skiing North of the Ohio River and South of Indianapolis.

 

Hey! At least it is something... A friend of mine is on the ski patrol there and she is able to slide me some free passes every year so it helps not having to use my wads and wads of furlough money.

 

Where did you go to high school?

 

skiing is bad without health insurance...wish i could go this season

 

As as Comair Refugee, now at NWA I can safely say that the DAL flight benefits are 10 times better then NWA. However, sometime this summer we are all going to have the same flight benefits as DAL. Also for those jumpseating around, NWA pilots have priority on any Delta mainline jumpseat, ahead of any DCI carrier, this was just announced. As for NWA buying Delta, it was a real possibility. I was told by a higher up CP, that NWA had 3.2 billion in cash and could have bought Delta, but the new Delta BOD did NOT want the NWA guy Dougie, to be CEO of New Delta, so it fell through. OK back to the life and times of comair.

 

FWIW...
