Let me correct myself here. I'm not sure if it is for ALL training events. I know for certain you have to do it for CQ, but I'm not sure about going through a training cycle for a new aircraft. Someone else may know the answer to that, but If it doesn't do it for CQ, I'd bet it doesn't do it for other training events either. I've never been through another training cycle since getting hired, so I don't know about that situation.

Why do you think there is no memo about it?

Yes, they will retro your p/d. I've put in request 60 days past my last cq, and it'll be included on your next 15th paycheck.
When you input the expense, you'll need to input the location of the training, time you depart from home, and what time you arrive back home, so they'll calculate your p/d accordingly.

As in, you couldn't list a flight from your home in Miami or Orlando to MSP for per diem purposes, you had to list a flight from DTW or MEM to MSP. This New Delta stuff has its perks.

Hey ACL, tell your people to tell the Crew Resources people to get that projected training list out sooner than two weeks. It's almost as bad as waiting for the results of bid was.

And ACL,
While you're at it, can you just tell us what time the list will be out like the last time, so we can stop checking every few hours. After you got the AE posting time down to the minute, I am willing to belive what you say about just about anything.

Not to speak evil of my "previous" employer, but they would make us calculate the time we left from base to get to training.

They used to be real big on that and would even send the forms back to you. Maybe they changed in the last few years and maybe I didn't. It's over and I have more than made up for the few dollars lost in my consuption of those cookies. But, it's time for something new. When is the new basket coming out? I vote for Oreos!
