I was a revenue passenger that day, so I probably should have said something but didn't. When I went to the lav, I could see that the FA's personal belongings were strewn across those seats, which may explain why he didn't want me back there.

It's rare on the 900, but every once in a while you will find your CG in a position to where you are required to have all empty seats in each section to be in the aft of that section. Not sure if that was the case or not.

How ironic? Join the Verizon network and you have the support at that guy on TV with a world of followers behind him.

Then JB tells the Comair employees in his latest message that they should see the positive side of their pass privileges getting slashed. Now we are able to use the entire Northwest network as well as Delta's. Does this guy really believe the stuff that comes from his own mouth? Yes, the network is larger now, but there are also that many more FAMILIES that will board an aircraft before you while you are trying to get to work.

I guess being supported by the Worlds Largest Network means everythying?

Ahhh, back to reality....COLA's over, gotta early report, but at least I was able to claim a couch and enjoy a couple Linekugels (sp) on the way up in 1st! CVG guys in a daze already

PTSD, maybe? Things are definitely going to get interesting and quick. I hope Bendo finds us some more space to occupy!

Just saw a hand-written note in JFK ops about a WO DCI 'Tea Party' to be held June 1st outside ATL, MSP, & CVG Kremlins. Time to make some noise about our 'back of the bus' treatment.

I’m just wondering how things are going at JFK today with all the displaced CVG crews operating out of JF’nK.

Kind of funny. They violate our contract every day, lay-off 250+ pilots, move half the company to JFK, and JM people...and nothing happens.

Pass benefits get changed...all hell breaks loose.

I think even using the term "back of the bus treatment" kind of stupid...there is no way this can be compared to the oppressiveness of segregation.

And the biggest problem. This company did nothing to try to mitigate furloughs. They cut straight to the chase. Thanks Comair!! I'm really enjoying my new home!
