Unless there's cadets that are even more senior than you.

ORD or DTW transfer for DEC?

Hello,

I'm in MSP right now and will have to commute to somewhere for December from both NC and Utah (long story). The lines keep moving away from me in MSP so was looking at either DTW, which I am 99% sure I can hold a line or ORD. I am trying to get to SLC but see the DVR says zero, plus I wouldn't mind having a line for a month. Any insight into the chances of getting a line in ORD or what would be a better commute. I am about 355- in seniority right now.

Thanks

SLC-DTW is a hub-hub commute for Delta, and they own the route and probably have a fair amount of commuters who will bump you from the jumpseat. DTW to NC is probably doable though. So I'd say do ORD as long as you're a line holder there.

When did you start class? Last I heard, they stopped doing this. (Which is good, cuz it's a b.s. practice.)

So we're going to start West Coast Shuttle ops again for Delta?
RG's message seemed a little vague.

Looks like 3 January is the start date for LAX-SFO shuttle.

Anyone know what the deal is with upgrades on the ERJ. rumor mill is that they are not doing any upgrades on that machine from the current FO group.

Other rumor mill is that there is some announcement coming on Nov 1'st for skywest and its a biggie.
