Anybody doing any NRSA travel while on furlough? I've been traveling around the country looking for jobs at Disney and Sea World. You know, all the places a pilot would normally "look for a job". I wonder if the Wal-Mart on Nantucket is hiring this time of year?
How about this place?? YouTube - ding fries are done

I don't make up the schedule. Have a Delta Day!
You know, we'd be happy at mainline to take all that PITA Delta flying back from you so you won't have to deal with all those angry passengers and messed up schedules.

Yes, because there are no angry passenger on mainline!? I don't see mainline have scheduled 20 minute turns in JFK. Oh, and you can be my guest and have all that flying back.

Delta take it back? I'm all for it.

But Delta take it and give it to Mesa or Pinnacle? Unfortunately, that's much more likely.

It would be great for everyone If Delta takes the flying back from the regional and gives it to mainline. That would mean more jobs for all of us at the majors with higher wages and better work rules. Unfortunately, that’s not going to happen. Delta is taking the flying form Comair, and is giving it to the lowest bidder = Mesa and Pinnacle regardless of the terrible level of service the bottom feeders provide. Way to go Delta.

I have to disagree on that last comment. True DAL is giving the flying to the lowest bidder for different reasons.

Pinnacle: I've non rev'ed on a couple of times and found their First Class very nice. On their NW side great crews allowing me to j/s. They are a lower bidder because the crapass contract they have. Kudos to all 9E ers for not taking a crappy offer.

Mesa(Freedom): I non rev'd the other day and it was crap. The aircraft creaked and groaned unless the gear was up. The F/A couldn't make a PA w/o screwing it up. The crew during their PA stumbled their whole way through it.

Just my perspective as a pax would see it.
