I think there are significant, personal safety issues to having hotel information public - not just for us, but the FAs too.

I don't mind the information about places to eat or things to do in the area - but saying what hotels we use is just a bad idea.

I say go look at the site, and see what you have to provide. Completely verifiable.

I am sure they already have cases of pilots being logged in while in the air.

SIDE QUESTION:
I have a friend who is using one of my buddy passes and is trying to get home but due to MX and WX might have to go a completely different route. I was already charged for the original route, how does changing that work and will I receive new charges? What about refunding the parts not used?

Well actually, when CS decides to DH all the CVG pilots to ATL, the ATL pilots to NYC, the NYC to LAX and the SLC pilots to PDX; everyone can go on line and read about their schedule changes and plan their deviations.

Actually, the way CS can staff this airline during IROPS is pretty incredible. Talk about a machine with 12,000 moving parts that have to be assembled just so ...

I say for all of the times I non-rev and DH I would love to have access to dbms for free though gogo. We get Delta.com....

that's what I'm talking about, I'll be commuting LAX NYC....

GOGO even blocks delta.usablenet.com right now.
That's where all mobile devices are sent for the delta mobile site...
Essentially there is no easy way to access delta.com from a mobile device.

The workaround:
Wait about 10 minutes for the pure text version of the mobile site to load.
Then scroll to the bottom and click on access HTML version.

Suddenly it's at full speed
