I think and dont quote me cause i do not remember but I walked into the new hire class today and i think there may have been a slot or 2 to SLC. I know there were a few to LAX and the rest to NYC

B-52's had been closed for awhile. The owners opened up a new bar up the street next to McDonald's, the Irish Bread Pub. It is sort of like B-52's just a lot cleaner. The new-hire parties were stopped. Don't know why. Maybe you can start them up again. The first Delta FA class starts tomorrow (mostly Mandarin speakers).

Since you were former Delta, you should be #1 in your class regardless of your social security number. Good luck and congrats.

Unfortunately that policy of former Delta only applies if you are an inactive employee coming back from leave OR a Company transfer. I.E. the girl in the 1st class last year who was a flight attendant and also a Pilot at ASA I think it was. Don't ask me how she was able to pull it off but she did. I think she was a very senior F/A. I will have to see about starting the Party thing up again. That was a blast and needs to be re-instated. I will have to talk to Brian about it and see if he minds me trying to kick start that again. Will see ya around.

Here was the break down for class 01-08

13 JFK B767ER
11 NYC MD88
3 QNY MD88
3 LAX B73N
3 SLC MD88/90
1 NYC B73N


Every class is different as slots are filled by people already in the pipeline to fill slots so don't expect this to be a indication of future offerings for future classes

What does the 3 QNY MD88 mean. Or how is that different than the 11 other ones.

QNY is the shuttle code. I think that was a misprint. There was a total of 11 MD-88 (QNY/NYC). You do both the shuttle and whatever other NYC MD-88 flying is out there. Mostly FL trips out of LGA/JFK and a few mainline trips mixed into CVG and ATL.

That woman in the first class was a first officer at ASA. She was a FA at DAL that was on five year leave. She came back as a FA at DAL one day before class, and ergo she was a company transfer. Simple as that.

You are correct that was a misprint. I should have put it QNY/NYC for shuttle and NYC. Shuttle is primarily shuttle but can do some other flying. Not normal but does happen. Sorry for the misprint. Thanks for the correction.

That's awesome. I wish I would have been able to take the longer leave. I didn't have that opportunity in Flight Ops. She hit a grand slam there thats for sure.
