Just to add fire to the rumor mill of 700's. My buddy at XJ told me the 700 thing was decided against but now XJ will be trading one 200 for one Q400! So that goes along with the rumor of the 50 seat flying shrinking a lot. But shoot me, I'm just the messenger!

The 17 I counted is really the Early out and the 55P plan.

Problem is, those guys are already gone. They just haven't been removed from the standing bid report yet.

Sort the list by creation time and that should give you a better idea of VOF, EOP and 55P takers.

I hope Comair doesn't fold and continues to make your lives as miserable as possible. I feel sorry for your families.

Comair is a worthless company and I don't understand why DL is putting up with this crap!
I hope Delta goes out of business

I'm still hearing 6%, but since this week is payday week, they will distribute profit sharing next week.

With that, over 400 folks will be furloughed from RHS since mainline lost all those international departures and Delta wants thier folks to do it.
Moving the 700 and 900's to another carrier will take time, since the leases are paid by us and not Delta. It takes time to get approval from the leasor to transfer the leases to the other carrier. We actually had a problem with transfering one of the -200's to Pinnacle. The leasor actually declined the transfer, so we got to keep the aircraft!
