CVG is dead. Actually going to be dead. I don't see DL having 3 hubs (DTW, MSP, and CVG) so close to each other. The whole OH displacement to JFK is just the beginning for things to come in CVG. My guess is, OH will be completely out of there by year's end. Followed by DL next year. Sad indeed.

That's what I'm hearing. Our PL's told us we have till September to find a place to go to in customer service, they said to expect a significant reduction in flights as CVG is going to be reduced from hub status. Lots of folks leaving the midwest but my question is- where are they going, Texas?

For those furloughed guys/gals with the travel companion:
Like Paok said, it shouldn't be a problem. I called the Pass Bureau this morning and was told that "Companions" have unlimited travel, both domestic and "Trans-Oceanic". Where as, we the employees get only 18 flights overseas.

Was there ever any resolution to scheduling giving out RR to Long Call guys. They have assigned me one for 3 days from now. Changed my LC to RR.
I find it hard to believe that they have already gone through the daily rundown for 3 days from now and that the most junior folks on the list weren't available.

Your travel companion has "unlimited" because he/she pays yield fare no matter what..but can go as many times as they please.

This could change things. It's only fair though. That's the way the contract was written.
