Delta Travel Benefits at ASA

[buscap]

As everyone at ASA knows, our travel benefits at Delta are changing. We are going to S3C and paying for every flight on DL Mainline.

But I would like to know if the other bazillion Delta Connection carriers are paying to fly on Delta. Any input would be appreciated.

I know the rules and privelages are different in each case, but I am primarily wondering about the pay to fly issue.

Is this reciprocal? Are DL employees S3C on ASA and having to pay?

 

[goahead]

yes their s3c but don't have to pay.

Delta mainline does not have to pay to travel on ASA!!!!!

If that isn't a "holier than thou" double standard, I don't know what is! It continues to emphasize the "gap" between regionals and mainline that in reality doesn't exist anymore. Are people leaving ASA in droves as they did at Mesaba?

Cant say for the others, but RAH people dont have to pay. Well, the 50 bucks anually, but I think thats across the board.

ASA pilots need to stop "fudging" the fuel numbers to carry more folks.

This is illegal.

If the fuel gauge shows "9450 lbs", then the load manifest should show the same.

I know some have done the "let's say 9200 lbs" to help out the Company. Oh, if only the FAA knew!

Would you lose your license for The Company?

All you're doing is squeezing another Non-rev from Delta who flies free, while we are never given that courtesy by mainline (remember, Delta mainline weight/balance is all computerized and never "fudged").

By-the-book is the only way.

XJT just pays the $50.00 flat fee annually. But only the LAX crews get the bennies.

Then how is this agreement the "best possible" one for ASA employees? Our management said that we were getting a great deal. Sounds like we now have to worst agreement in the DCI group.

Comair just pays 50.00 a year. The employee is unlimited Intl. and domestic, wife and kids get 18 Intl. trips and unlimited domestic, same with parents 18 Intl. and unlimited domestic, plus 8 buddy passes

 

[arthompson]

You sure only LAX crews get the benies at XJT? I know one of the COEX system managers and he thought everyone got them.

 

[flyguy81]

why would everyone get them if only 1 base flies for the airline....that would be stupid on delta's part.

Okay people, now I need to hear from the other DCI carriers.
