My buddy is at ASA, and said pilots are now required to clean planes that overnight in Atlanta.

Is he pulling my leg?

ASA is joining Delta in implementing a “Deep Clean” program across our fleet to improve our overall customer service offering. Now you have a chance to help kick off the program by volunteering for Delta Connection After Dark on Aug. 21.

Volunteers will meet at the Atlanta airport where you will be placed in teams and armed with cleaning supplies to deep clean ASA’s remain overnight (RON) aircraft. Our partners at AirServ will handle galley and lav cleaning, and will even do the vacuuming while ASA teams will handle the cabin interior including seats, seat-back pockets and tray tables. Refreshments will be provided while pride in our fleet will be plentiful.

I remember a day back on Aug 21st.

 

[Stifler's Mom]

Refreshments will be provided ...

ie. Feel free to help yourself to a warm can of soda from the galley.

This sort of gimmick only works the way it is intended when the relationship between management and its employee groups is a healthy one.

Why doesn't ALPA picket the event?

Why doesn't ALPA picket the event?

Um, because it's in the middle of the night on the ATL airport ramps. Or is it at the MTC hangar? Either way nobody will be there to see them.

What a friggin' joke..

"Now you have a chance to help kick off the program by volunteering for Delta Connection After Dark on Aug. 21."

The chance to help kick off the program eh?

You guys aught to hide out in the concourse and see what tool bags show up for this garbage.. .

 

[say again]

Just dont volunteer!!!

 

[Turtlesfly]

why don't you volunteer and then show up and pee in the airplane?

 

[Tram]

Shoot, while your pissin' might as well pinch a loaf..

Didn't a pilot just get fined a month's pay for putting a bumper sticker on an airplane? This little "good ideal" may and should get you jail time.

If the company sucks so much, that you want to vandalize their property like a common thug, then QUIT.

Lighten up, this is the internet. On the internet you will frequently see bored individuals try to make jokes. These jokes come in many forms, but in the interest of brevity I'll focus on sarcasm. Sarcasm is a form of humor popular in the Midwest. Admittedly, it's difficult illustrate sarcasm in writing, but a sure sign is when an otherwise normal line pilot threatens to urinate on an airplane.

 

[GOULET!]

I'm sure they will get some suckers from a new hire class to go out there.
