Delta the Least Respected Brand in America

[SWA Bubba]

Their elected representatives voted NO, and someone didn't like that. That is in the ALPA by laws. That is allowed. Someone then had a hissyfit. Tell me that didn't happen.

Okay, "it" didn't happen. At least not like you imply.

Their elected representatives AGREED in writing to do something. Something, it turned out, that they had no intention of doing. That is NOT allowed. That's called "bad faith." That's why ALPA is being sued by some of its members, not Southwest or SWAPA. You did know about that, right?

WHY? Do you guys respond to everything GL posts?

No doubt. They bite and give him exactly what he wants. Just ignore him and he wont keep ranting. I guess they respond because they are wound as equally tight. They all are an embarrassment and need to get a life. They are clearly trying to compensate for whatever shortcomings they have going on in their lives. At least it's a remainder as to why I rarely visit this forum anymore.

How many SWA trolls does this thread attract?

How many SWA trolls does this thread attract?

I'm gonna' say... just slightly more than it does Delta trolls.

You guys screwed it up. Right away in the DL merger, everyone was brought whole. A joint contract with equal pay was a priority.


Bye Bye---General Lee

Wow, two crappy pilot contracts brought together as one. :crying: Neither NWA or Delto had anything extremely valuable to either party, just two bankrupt carriers joining forces like Circuit City and CompUSA. "Dude, who has the better employee discount".:laugh:

You guys are now the laughing stock along with the US Easties.

Yeah, sure whatever Go kick your dog, or a DCI pilot if that's what gets you off. Get Delto to start treating the Connection pilots better, then you can come on here and pontificate. Until then, shut your piehole.

The handful of times that I have gone on DAL in the past 7 years is because the ANA flight has been full, but you are right, the service has improved and DAL seems to be doing better than the others, but nowhere near the service at ANA or JAL, and as you pointed out, I have experienced the difference first hand. Thank you for your concern, but the mainline folks treat us better here that I was treated at my major gig back in the US, sorry to disappoint you!

It seems to be the "safe" choice across the Pacific. The service is getting a lot better, new lie flat seats, PTVs, etc. You should know, you fly DL to MSP all the time. Hey, do you ever get mean stares from the ANA guys? Always wondered about that. They must give you the "ice stare" all the time. Hmmmm. Good luck with that.

FWIW, the article was mostly referring to respectability regarding it's attractiveness as a quality investment. Until recently, Wall Street has generally hated airline stocks and they have never had a good reputation as good investments.

I agree, you guys are being too hard on DAL, they did crack the top 50 in Skytrax's world ranking by coming in at #49 this year, the only US carrier in the top 50....!

I enjoyed Richard Anderson's opening in sky magazine about how it's all about taking care of people... While he's dragging DCI through the mud for more concessions on already low wages.

As a retired Delta pilot i was incensed with Anderson's opener in the old safety video. He said C.E. Woolman built Delta on the principles of honesty, integrity, and mutual respect. He is so correct. Richard Anderson doesn't even deserve being mentioned in the same sentence with CE Woolman much less being allowed to sit at his desk.
