Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

I called scheduling and they said that the trip will go to the 3 day bucket person regardless of seniority or yellow slip because I'm in the 6 day bucket.

A YS will be trumped if there is a pilot whose bucket matches the length of the trip.

Really classy. Nice response. I've been on reserve 4 of 5 years here and displaced 5 times, so I think I get to vent a little.
The point I was trying to make is that if we're all going to be assigned trips, then the senior guy should have preference. Or if I want to fly, I should be able to take a trip on my reserve day regardless of what bucket I'm in.

Just got a phone call from voice response and did not answer. Checked open time for Atl m88a and 21 open trips for the 3rd and 5 available. Someone failed on the staffing. Que PG in 3, 2, 1....to tell us that it must be sick leave abuse, not a staffing issue and how much joy he is having as the new company attendance czar

I was rerouted twice today due to a shortfall in the ATL M88B category. When you look at reserves required and available, it's typically around 50/25 about 5 days out, ten 55/0 the day or two prior. The 717 transition has drawn a lot of pilots out and leadership has failed to appropriately plan ahead for the summer schedule.

The way the system is, a computer seeks to optimize manning available.
Resolution passed in LEC44 pushing requested improvements up to the MEC level for consideration at the appropriate committee level.
