Any "Latest & Greatest" about Endeavor?
#2032
I was in an Endeavor heavy hotel one night having dinner quietly in the corner with 8 guys being loud at the bar. The summary of their unavoidable conversation was "dude, Delta is just going to staple us on the bottom. We already have our FAs staying in other hotels like them. They are doing that to make the merge easier."

Anyone else notice they don't have hardly any open-time available? Wasn't the new rules supposed to have a certain percent available? I noticed all previous months there was a ton, now that they offer 150%, hardly any available.. Maybe overall less flying for January?

They did, but a lot of it got picked up.

it was supposed to be 3% now instead of 1% after line construction.... sure didn't look like that, then I'm guessing there were build up lines that took up most of that... Now there are 1 open trips for January in DTW 900 CA list (a less than min day turn to PIT. who is going to pick that up for 2.2 hours pay?).

There was a group of pilots wives pushing for that back in the late 90s but it never really took.

Hint: It's not. Sometimes we layover with them, sometimes we don't. They do completely different trips as they can swap around between aircraft types and have different work rules.

Yep, and that was also almost 20 years ago now! It's extremely common domestically to not see us laying over together as the FA trips and pilot trips are built quite differently.
