I certainly remember that one. It wasn't bad enough I was getting furloughed later that week, but they decieded to keep my whole paycheck for this too.

Yes, I shipped a friend to Zurich last year. Just make sure the name matches the passport.

EDIT: Nevermind, already been answered.

Only if it comes with a dtw base.

This rumor has been around for a few years...so probably no more than a rumor.

No way! A chief was out of the office for the whole day of October?

I seem to recall that was a major cluster - payroll was counting furloughs as terminations instead of furloughs, and using the termination clause to dock their entire paycheck.

That might make me feel like family - if the family was the Phillips family and I was MacKenzie.

But I doubt "the Director" actually arranged the cluster and then hid just out of sight to watch pilots squirm on his secret hidden cameras.

Compared to Comair's 49 flights a day, that's a big leap. At least it would make for less 4-days and more 2&3 day pairings for the 150 CVG pilots that aren't on reserve.

Negative. Would be nice, but the contract is protected while Mesa is in bankruptcy. Not going to happen any time soon.

That would bring a lot of people back. If that were the case
