They are voluntary until you bid it two months prior. At that point the company knows the manning situation is firm and can build the rotations accordingly. Absolutely no different than any other base. Even given that the VB's will be of little use to the company. They have really leaped all over starting them up! Didn't I have a bet with someone about that?

You get N/A in the place of the altitude when showing cloud tops. Turn on turbulence instead of cloud tops and you'll see N/A go away.

I'll try to pass that on. I think you can also submit an FCR with your input.

Hockeypilot44 is absolutely right. To add onto his post a little more, it shows N/A because the clouds are height and as such there's no profile view like the turbulence display.

This goes for anyone else reading this post, if you have future ideas or complaints about any of the apps, feel free to PM me with the feedback and I can relay them to the people running the beta testing.

Vacation in a reserve month is ussually a good deal. Everything is pro-rated and you make more $$$. Once you get your schedule it will show the pro-rated number of Short calls that you may be assigned.

Use the reserve calculator to figure out exact number of X days, golden days, hours of pay etc. The reserve calculator is available in PBS - I think on the PBS info page or you just google John F Bell - the very smart guy that created the calculator has his own website that has all kinds of goodies for DAL guys including:

A flight plan translator -- with sortable NOTAMs
seniority calculator
Reserve calculator

It's like Christmas for geeks.

Hey guyz,

Anyone had laundry done in HNL? Got a 12 day Asia that doesn't transit NRT.

How quick/expensive is the hotel? Or, I'm assuming there is someplace around the mall

Ferd (yes I'm still alive/not retired)

I'll PM you in a day or two when I roll through there. They do have "do it yourself laundry" in the hotel, but I'm not sure I'd leave either the washer or dryer alone with your clothes in it there. Things can disappear. Double-check the PWA on the amount you get for laundry reimbursement...it's based on time away from base. I'll let you know what I get charged when I get it back. It's just easier for me to drop it off with the hotel and let them do it...especially if you have a long layover. Those golf holes don't play themselves.

Perfect thanks, yes homie ain't sitting by a washing machine so hotel drop-off or private laundry. I have a long 50 something hour layover but it's over the 4th so I'm not sure how that will effect the time required.

I'm hoping for a private place I can drop off, head to Japan and back (3 crossings) then pick up.......sort of setting up the relay in NRT only different The hotel should know if there is a good place close, its a big mall after all

So...my wife is non-reving out of ATL. 2 folks junior to me AND a Buddy Pass all get cleared into Delta Comfort. My wife is sent to a back middle seat. isn't there somewhere in TravelNet I can ask for an explanation?

I never post, but have seen this issue a lot. "Travel Companions ". Non DAL people on S2 passes with stupid seniority dates getting on flights. Latest was me trying to get my family of 4 to PUJ. Guy doing the obvious non rev shuffle beside us. I ask him his plans. Short story, he and his wife are on S2 "companion passes" with a 96 date. Mind you, not a DAL person with them. Real happy he made it, while my 6 year old was asking me why we didn't...

Who gets S2 companion passes?
