Yeah, you'll see "D-ATIS" on top of the frequency.

Trainjng question - I'm debating driving my car to DEN. Mostly worried about getting to grocery stores like Whole Paycheck - a 20 min drive per googlemaps.
What are the chances that anyone drives to training? I'd rather pay a friend for gas money than really drive myself.
Thanks

They have a shuttle that will bring you to Walmart for food runs. You really don't need a car here. We rented one over the weekend and split it so we could hit the mountains but other then that, you don't need one

That's cool but Walmart =/ Whole Foods. Anyway, did anyone in your class drive? Just wondering what the chances are folks do that?

There is also the 1 year seat lock that is keeping a good portion of the FOs from transitioning.

My seniority would be significantly better if I transitioned to the 175 but I'm personally holding off because I don't want to lose my Delta benefits. If a Delta contract came up on the E175 I would transition and lots of other senior people would.
I guess it all depends on bases. I'd be more junior on the 175 if I transitioned to it in SFO.

It's just really frustrating to see your seniority in base get worse every month... I'm now 7 numbers worse off than when I transferred in 7 months ago.
