Also hearing similar theme from the 2 dozen guys I've polled...10 to 20 per cent...stand-by for mega disappointment.

Does anyone know how to non-rev to Santiago or Lima? I have the highly sought after 1st week of December vacation block and was looking at warm destinations. I also saw something strange going to PPT (Polynesia). It shows a route to LAX, then a 777 with 0/0 capacity to PPT. ---Thanks

P.S. With my short attention span, the pin-up girls are what keep me coming back eCh morning with my coffee.

The real bad sign is guys asking for 15-25%. I take that's over 5 years? So 9 year FOs still will just be making $100,000 in 2017? I know that's min res on the lowest paying jet and one can always WS and trip park to higher pay.
Sailing will come along and tell you that 9 year FO making $100k is about what a similar seniority SWA FO will be making. The data proves it.

Gloopy is good.

Julianne Hough is better.

Should we be dancing over our $765M Q3 profit? Yes, I think so.

But many of us don't know how to dance. So we'll let Julianne Hough show us.



When you're wife finds out you are trying to learn to dance, you'll get an A for your use of the internet. When she finds out you're also going back and demanding higher pay on your survey, well, you're going to be as en fuego as 80ktsclamp! All I can say is you better duck when the "okay, fine, tonight" pillow is thrown your way!

I think PPT is operated by Air France from LAX...thats why the loads show 0/0.

Year to date, our payments to contract carriers for flying you and I do not perform grew by 33% from 3.1 Billion to 4.14 Billion.

As we mostly talk about pay, we need to remain mindful of all the money mother Delta sends out the door.

Been there, done that...at least I think I did. Memory is a little fuzzy. Still have a bottle in the freezer.
