Default Back-end DH CDG

Scambo1

You were 100% right on this one. Not sure how the agent had the time to make it all happen.

Had to wait about an hour for the terminal ticket counter to open, but still plenty of time after that. Thanks

List before the trip.

Anyone know if CDG has specific procedures upon arrival to get back on the plane to DH home same day as arrival? Flight is about 4 hrs after arrival.

Can one enter your name on the gen dec? Thanks

I wonder about some of you guys....
If the roles were reversed, I doubt youd like it if we reacted to you in the same manner.

I think there's just some frustration with this whole debate because the fDAL guys don't really care who the fleet captain is.
Let's make a deal -- Give me an extra dollar in my paycheck and you guys can have every desk job on Virginia Avenue.
For another 50 cents we will create a brand new position reserved exclusively for a former Northwest pilot:

The Right Honorable Fleet Admiral, High Overlord, Grand Poobah and Supreme Allied Commander of Delta Aviation

(but you gotta wear the hat)

Delta: Flight attendant union alleges interference


ATLANTA (AP) -- Delta Air Lines Inc. says the Association of Flight Attendants is claiming the company interfered in a recent union election.

The union narrowly lost the election to represent 20,000 Delta flight attendants earlier this month. Union officials immediately claimed the company improperly influenced flight attendants to vote against the union.

Delta says the union is disregarding the will of the majority of flight attendants. The airline says the interference claim will keep it from matching pay and benefits between flight attendants who came from Northwest and those who have been at Delta all along. Delta bought Northwest in 2008.

The National Mediation Board will look into the claims. It can either dismiss them or order a re-vote.

I saw this coming from the start when RA and his in flight management team began campaigning against the union drive from the start. He'd have been better off to have said NOTHING. RA reaps what he sowed.

Where did you get the photo of the "Super Premium Wide Body" Captain uniform?

Sorry Carl, I couldn't help myself.
