So if it got damaged in company shipping, can we expense a new one (once we have a contract)? GENIUS!!

Heh.

Speaking of Concur, anyone else using it more than usual for expensing transportation?

There’s several stations in particular where SkyHop isn’t really a livery service anymore but really just a 3rd party “let me call you a Lyft” service. Welcome to the Department of Redundancy Department.

(I personally decline Lyft if I’m literally just standing next to a cab. Then..Concur)

I bet it's easier and maybe cheaper than maintaining a van fleet and hiring and training drivers.

Seems the younger employees are much more comfortable with this being a norm. I use it occasionally but as I would a cab. Some people use it as a regular transportation and don't own vehicles, there's definitely varied comfort levels in a crew of 6. We all went but chose who would ride with each car. Accommodations wanted to split it FAs and pilots.

Is anyone else having problems logging into Navblue? I get the message that bidding doesn’t open until 6pm, but then I get the message “user data not available”.
I should just wait 2 hours and try again, but I’m impatient.
