DTW 73NB -- I'm only counting 45 awarded, and the AE said there were supposed to be 55?
Anyone have any ideas on that? That's 10 MORE positions we didn't get for FOs on this AE. Along with the 20 or so 717B that weren't filled, that's 30 more folks stagnation than this AE said we should have had, ie 30 folks less positive movement.

I hear what you're saying...but look at it this way re: the 717B underfill...it's 20 or so fewer seats on the lowest-paying equipment.

Training dept bottlenecks.

This was a big award. With a 365 day conversion window.
Guaranteed there will be "clean-up" bids when they get a better handle on throughput.

Don't worry. DTW73N is only going to get bigger.

Default Non-Revenue Question

For DAL folks non-reving on Pinnacle is it straight DOH between all the same category of DAL folks? More specifically, do current DAL employees all travel on the same status?

I am on a mainline flight that connects to Pinnacle. Mainline wide open - Pinnacle a few seats. I don't think a S-2 would do any good (or can be used even if I anted to) since the mainline flight is wide open.

Does this sound about right?

Thanks Scoop

Question… I got displaced. I wanted to go to training earlier than later… Can I still request that? How do I put that preference in icrew? I looked around the AE preference pages and I couldn’t figure that out. Thanks in advance.

I believe you get your training based on seniority. If you have no seniority, you are at the mercy of the court.

On the MD card there was a "convert before junior" column on the far right. I think you were supposed to put a Y in that column. Don't know if you can still request it.

And leave the -9 earlier than necessary?? Shame on you. Every month you stick around is an easy extra half dozen stories you get to tell your grandkids....

Maybe they decided to leave them open rather then displace more. Or maybe they will flow people up. Hard to say.

There won't be any flow-ups until the recall-bypass list is exhausted.

Let's all hope that is soon.
