edit: I just saw on Epic it's the Crown Plaza

second edit: What's this about no restaurant discount? I was drinking and ordered food poolside and I think i got 10 or 15% off my bill. And the guy didn't charge me for about half my drinks.

That's what it's like when I'm bartending (at a certain French Bistro in downtown Cincy) and if any fellow Comair peeps wanna stop in they will learn why Belgium makes the best beers in the world...and not just cause they're free.

like i said before 10% give everyone else a bad name. Everyone knows who there are. I know them by employee number. Its hard to seperate the two sometimes and not paint all pilots with the same brush. I do appreciate the ones who go above and beyond Thank you.

Cheers

I think it is only for known absences more than 3 days. I just grabbed the FMLA packet the other day(gonna have some surgery) and I think that is how I read it. Becky will tell ya what you need to know.

I was talking to someone who knows some things, and he was saying that Delta is not happy with the direction that U.S. Helicopters out of JFK is going. Evidently, since Comair already has a base there, Comair is going to get a fleet of 5 helicopters to operate more flights to more nearby destinations.

I know that's a joke, but all kidding aside, it wouldn't be that difficult to do. We already have numerous pilots who are helicopter rated.

Well with all kidding aside, not to disclose where I heard it, but if we are going to spread good be good rumors, I did hear Mesa was going to focus more on its US Air and United flying. Delta did just award them 14 900s a year ago. Anyone know anything?

I don't believe somebody is going to turn down flying...
