Yes, you are still at the very top of the list for upgrades, but if you get the upgrade you lose the $$$ you spent on the C+. Small price to pay though for D1.

Anyone know if Boston has a pilot lounge yet or is the FA lounge the only place to get away from the terminal for a bit?

Thanks

I had a carry in GS, and even after taking 5 hours from the bank I am still 2 hours below the GS trigger. If I pick up a Silver Slip I assume that would put me over the trigger since it pays credit and pay and then extra pay. Does that sound right? Basically do SS hours count toward the GS trigger?

A GS is a terrible thing to waste.

Quick PWA question. The way I read it answer is no but thought I’d ask…. Does Jury duty paid time off also apply if your spouse is called for jury duty? Still have kids at home that can’t get themselves around on their own yet.

No. Childcare is not Delta's responsibility. You will, however, be able to drop anything in that footprint without pay almost no questions asked..

We had a hard enough time getting paid parental leave at one of the lowest rates for a fortune 500 company and there were a few pilots who were mad we even negotiated for it.

What if you don't have kids??? Is that like PS for commuters? Having kids is a choice. 😁🤣

What's the last PCS run one can APD/IVD a trip before it's too late?

Just want to make sure I'm not messing this up with the new extra day out coverage rules.
