You'd think SWAPA and the majority of Southwest pilots would be in favor of, and doing everything in their power to ensure there would be a way for as many of us not to come over as possible. If nothing else, just to protect your version of your culture.

Luv2-

Don't take this the wrong way, but I'd bet that 99.9% of SWA pilots would be more than happy to help you in your quest to stay with the planes going to delta.

The LAST thing any of us want is to *make* you come to work for this awful backwards airline.

I sincerely hope that your great ALPA is working on something like that for you and that you have a chance to work for Delta. Most here would be happy to write a letter or contribute to that cause.

Good luck-- I hope it works out for you.

I do hope that anybody that doesn't not want to work for SWA gets hired by their dream company whether that is Delta, United, Emirates, etc. Nothing is worse (or more taxing) than flying a 3 or 4 day trip with a guy that can't stop complaining about how bad he has it. I would get it if we worked for an airline like Pinnacle or American Eagle but that is not where we work.

I hope that the maturity level shown here is not indicative of the actual level at neither group! Gezz! You guys are worse than a Mexican soap opera!

At least they have smokin' hot women.

That being said, you still have to do the job, if and when you come here.

Yeah- One Luv -and all those who come over you'll get that-
But I agree with the poster- if you guys would rather be at delta- I absolutely want that for you too- one luv

Whether you like it or not, you have a B-Scale on your property. Two 737s going from ATL-BWI and one costs a third less to operate. Which 737 do you think the bean counters in DAL want to operate? You think they would gladly give it up now after your union looked the other way when it happened? Good luck with that.....

B-scale? You work for Southwest or Airtran?

Two different companies as far as I know.

Thanks for clearing that up. Say, any predictions on who will win yesterdays Super Bowl?

I have changed airlines because I wasn't happy with the one I am with.

Many of you on here should try to do the same. Life is not worth being that unhappy.

Walk a mile in our shoes before you condemn us.

And that attitude is what is driving the division between the two groups.

You'll be on our scale when you come over.....with longevity. Honestly, I'm sorry you guys didn't get the immediate payraise above and beyond the new contract you got from this deal. It was a travesty that you couldn't vote on the first agreement. It was much better than what was behind door number two.

Walk in my shoes and you will better understand my perspective.

This will eat some up for their lifetime. Its not worth it.
