Makes you feel like family doesn't it?

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.

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.
