First To Worst

[Data]

They start buying used coffee grounds from other airlines?

It's the only possible way United's coffee could taste worse... uke:

Delta's tuna scented coffee has to give it a run for the money. The first few times the FAs were brewing it I called back to ask if they were macking on a huge tuna-curtain sandwich. Nope, just brewing Seattle's Best!

Thats cause they use the filters to clean their panty hose.

I bid around it by 5 days on either side. It must not have gone too terribly, we didn't make CNN.

But NBC's Brian Williams said "United bought Continental" on Friday, so they got that going for them.

"Delta Air Lines had a much smoother transition to a single reservation system following its 2008 merger with Northwest Airlines."

In spades.

Went smoothly.......sorry to disappoint you.

Why would I be dissapointed??? Went better than I thought it would but I certainly would not call it hiccup free.

Couldn't go from "First to Worst" without keeping the name United! Not sure Continental was "First", but I do know we have the "Worst" spot nailed down now.

Hey, I can't list on EmployeeRes. When I try, there is a message that says it will be back up by 0500 on the 3rd. Since it's now the 5th, I'm guessing there are some lingering problems?

That site is permanently closed. You have to go to Skynet, then employee travel link on right side.

Please be advised that after a successful PSS cutover we are experiencing one anomaly with respect to navigating to Employee Res. Pilots may access Employee Res by navigating through the CCS portal to the Flying Together Website...travel...employee res. At present accessing employee res through the Coair website is problematic and technology is addressing.

Permanently closed? Based on this email in CCS, I'd say that it's down temporarily.

Here's the Pilot Bulletin. Looks like I misinterpreted it. I was taking it to mean the coair link would be closed permanently but appears it is temporary. My mistake. The link via Skynet does work though.

To: All Pilots
Early this morning United Airlines merged our Passenger Service System to the L-CAL Shares System. Please be advised of the following minor issues:
-- After being unavailable for several hours, EmployeeRES is now functional for employees to list for pleasure, business, jumpseat and vacation travel.
-- The L-CAL pilots must access EmployeeRES through the Flying Together Website. EmployeeRES is NOT available via the COAIR Website. The Flying Together Website is available as a drop down selection via the CCS portal. Technology is addressing this issue.

Thanks guys, got it done. Just my opinion, but that website sucks.

Sorry to be a pest, but does anyone know when a bid estimate will be out? That grid/graph thing with the bid projections?

nvm: Tomorrow (6th), and another mostlikely on the 13th...
