Ha! The Southern Baptist good ol' boys are in for a rude awakening with some of Branson's antics.

Do you suppose we will see this ad in the Atlanta market?

I'll take door #2, please....

Sounds like someone is trying to get their friends some sweet contract gigs. At least they're not throwing money they don't have to LCC's in a futile attempt to generate the nonexistant "Southwest effect" of an "LCC". Oh wait...

If that thing was written on April 1st I wouldn't have believed it because of how stupid it is. Something in all that mentioned 2027. That nonsense will be scrubbed long before then when they realize they have no way to pay for it.
I agree with you 100%! The NKY Cincinnati Airport Board must be the dumbest group of people on the face of the earth. Although I agree the rental car area of CVG could be improved, tearing down Concourse A (which was renovated last year) and Concourse B (still in good condition) isn't going to go well for CVG.

I always thought Delta would close the CVG hub due to market forces or the NWA merger. But now I know they'll have to close it due to the stupid people in charge of the airport. Good grief.

Wait, I thought you were a DFA anyway. Well best of luck!
Thanks for the good wishes! I don't know any DL FAs, so I'm on my own. I just hope they're going to hire something other than young and inexperienced. And no, I'm not DL FA. I think you may be confusing me with DALFA.

Come on, if you live in the epicenter of NYC you've got to know someone. Or know someone who knows someone. Even if its not a DL FA, you've got to know some DL employee in the area that would give you an internal.

Hard to believe, huh? Outside of the FAs I've worked with, I don't have any family, friends of acquaintances who work for any airline...
