Reasons why Airtran pilots are gonna LUV Southwest!

[GhettoBeechjet]

Don't get me wrong, I still think SW should be stapled to the bottom of the Airtran list after inverting the ATN seniority list making myself SWAPA president at 150 Captain flight credits per month buyout. But I guess we all have our ideas of how the whole SLI should go down.

Things will be much better once the SWAPA pilots realize that the AAI pilots will be awarded at least the first 1700 spots on the new seniority list.

Actually, I prefer to do the running, since I'm usually the one avoiding the more convenient crappy food and it doesn't seem right to ask the guy to go to the ends o the earth just to get what I want . . . . So, I fly and buy.

I work for beer.LOL

I work for beer.LOL

I do, too. The problem is, I drink Fat Tire and they want to pay me in Natty Light.


On the list of AirTran pluses- Beck's Beer! Also, Heineken and Amstel Light besides the usual swill. What does SWA have, besides the usual AB products? Do you have Shiner Bock, or something other than Bud/Lite/Coors? Non-revs get free brew?

See Ty, this is why we consider you an insensitive cretin, you mention the fact we don't have Shiner Bock and NOBODY drinks for free. cu later, jeesh, just when you were starting to sound sane...

 

[Ty Webb]

Pay for drink? Is this fur real?

I KNEW there was a catch to all of this. So we will have to PAY for our liquor on our way home? That explains the higher pay rates- it's to offset this very egregious and expensive policy.

I haven't had to pay for a drink in 9 years. We get free schnocktails when non-revving in Biz Class, but most F/A's know Ty is "Biz Class" no matter where he sits on the aircraft.

I will get the list tomarrow. I drink MD 20/20. They don't have that on swa. What we need to do is ensure the partying part of the culture never dies. And mostly taking care of each other. I do believe you will see long hual destinations in the near future. No slam clicky in south America baby! At AT does the flying pilot get the pdc and set up the cockpit?

 

[Crash Pad]

He is serious about the MD 20/20. I've seen him pound it like its full of vitamins and minerals!

Looks like the final argument will come down to seniority, Which will require arbitration.

Ty- run all you want- but I bet there are more than a few FOs who'd prefer to run to get a stretch- balance it out captains-

No dog in this fight but I understand 1/2/3 is waning and not being renewed as hotel contracts expire. SWA bros can correct me if I am wrong.

1/2/3 is alive and well, but kept under wraps.
