I agree, but it's very likely they are all going to be military, or those that are well connected. Delta is showing that there are perks if you take concessions and play nice; I use the term "perks" very loosely here.

Recent hiring cycles have been 60% civilian and 40% military, trending toward more civilian.

Military pilots get more "cold calls" without recommendations than civilian do. In fact, the only civilian pilot that got a cold call that I know of was JP from 9E.

How about:

"Pinnacle. We put the "P" in Pwned."

All your base are simply the best.

Somebody set us up the bankruptcy. You have no chance to upgrade, make your SIC time.

Sorry to sidetrack a little bit, and in the interest of not starting a new thread, can anyone help with a 9E jumpseat question.

I need to go from YYZ Toronto to DTW. On the date I'm looking, they are all 9E operated flights. Can I jumpseat? I know sitting in the jumpseat physically isn't allowed, but how can I get a standby/jumpseat listing so I can get a cabin seat?

Any number to call in advance?

Or do I just go the Delta checkin counter? Internationally speaking, my experience at the counters usually hasn't been too great, with agents not knowing what a jumpseat listing is, and the standard response of no one can sit in the flight deck jumpseat.

Anyone know what the tax amount is and where/how I can pay it?

Thanks!!!

What an ungreatful Colgan pilot at 9E. I lived in base at 9E, so jumpseating procedures internationally with 9E was not my forte. Maybe an original 9E pilot has a better answer.

I'm sure you just list on it like any other flight. Just go to deltanet and list. My experience overseas is that the counter as been great in helping me identify loads and options (At least in Haiti and DR). From my understanding is you can not flying in the Jumpseat internationally. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. As far as the tax information, call our travel department. If someone answers the phone, they can give you a good idea on the cost of the leg. You can get the number off of our website. Hope this helps!
