AirTran Airways announces Wi-Fi service on every flight!!

Maybe Delta should run ads advertising how we didn't change our name to run from a checkered past......Would that work?? Too Soon???

I guess we should define checkered past. HMMM Bankruptcy... Cuting Pilot wages by 40%...... Destroying Pilot Pension...... Flight 191.... Ah hell......... Just read it here. Theres plenty for you to chew on!

Did they mention how much it will cost to use the wi fi or is it free? will the pilots have access to it for free?

We chip in to buy our own lunches.
We chip in to lower pay scales so they can buy more fuel.
We chip in to get taxis and hotel rooms on our own and wait (hope and pray) they get reimbursed timely.
We chip in to buy the higher-priced snacks on the plane (since the turn was too tight to go get real food to go).

Why not pay for the internet, too? Maybe you can think of a clever way to tax deduct it. Had to check FLIcA for work... yeah, that's it.

Speaking of that Deltalina guy, has he had "the operation," yet? Or is he still pre-op?

Ranges from $8 to $13 for passengers to use the wi fi, was just reported on the 9 pm news in Milwaukee.

but did Delta have to change their name??

I guess all those battery fires and GREAT footage of people bailing out on the ATL runways in a cartoonjet seemed to slip your mind.....

Yep, lots to chew on.

I noticed you guys can be a little slow, is that why you always ask for wind checks?

I don't get it.....

 

[Kharma Police]

I don't get it.....

I'm sorry you "don't get it", but don't worry guy! The next time you have a tough question, feel free to ask, I'm here to help!!!

For instance, you might ask, "How many zeros are in a billion for our three month loss?" or "What will I do for my retirement" or "What do these big words mean, bankruptcy, force majeure and furlough?"

This is great stuff, almost as entertaining as the USAir east/west material. I can't wait for our merger si I can get into a good "brewhaha" right here on FI!!
