The Pilot Parking Information Guide for Atlanta says that I need a "WP Parking Decal" in order to gain access to the Campcreek Parking Lot. Is this the same decal I got during the sims from the office on the bottom floor of the building near the intersection of Delta Blvd and Airport Loop, or do I need to go to the CPO and get another parking decal?

Same one.. It says delta and has your employee number typed on it.

Honestly though, many a good time on Wake island "training/fishing" trips from Hawaii! The 50cent beers always helped as well.

I'm trying to use my APD on Sept 3rd (only on the 3rd) to drop a trip Sept 3 - Sept 6. Failure message of "Capped Reserves."

Reserve coverage is well above the 25% level for APD use on the 3rd. Since trip is near Labor Day, are special rules in effect?

Thanks!

I regularly see all sorts of potential GS out of NYC go to ATL reserves. All it costs the company is 1 DH from ATL...

Greenslips on reserve only pay straight pay above the cap, and not 2X. Also, tons of potential greenslips are covered with reserves now that ALPA gave the company a 14 hour window(unwritten, but it was a 3 hr window). Not to mention pilots getting rerouted like reserve pilots. The 14 hour window has had a huge impact on greenslips and whiteslips and ALPA gave it away like it was nothing.
