Some of us have been around long enough to see that flows go both ways. Or they just disappear altogether.
The economy is overdue for a downturn. A big one. Probably not as big as 2008, but it's still coming. Have fun at Envoy when your flow slows, then stops, then reverses.
Merry Christmas troll.

Plus I live in Vegas, which apparently doesn't matter when they try to find people to pick up no-notice flights out of DTW. And I'm already flying Christmas because new guy, so I've got all sorts of alibis why that isn't my fault even though I'm DTW based and didn't work that day.
Does that help? I can't tell.

A newbie with two quick questions here. Where can I go to look up the tail number of a plane I flew? (Crew Track will show me the hours and flight number but not tail number)
Also on the FLICA website, under open time what does the "TB" in the green circle to the right of the pairing number mean? Thanks! Merry Christmas.
