Surprised there hasn't been a thread started on the epic meltdown Delta has had this week yet again.

Was passenger CVG-ATL yesterday. Original departure was supposed to be 1150AM, delayed multiple times to 2129, got out earlier on standby. Got email driving home that flight was cancelled.

Oh, and my bag came on a different flight, wasn't waiting in the 50 person line at the baggage office, so I'm MARTA-ing back sometime to get my bag.

At least the SkyClub has free beer.

Got stuck in Detroit last night 5 hours to find out my deadhead cancelled and now all my flights today and deadhead back are delayed. I'm still new to this so I guess on the bright side.....more per diem?????

Can't wait for round 2 :stir:

What's crew coordinating?

One of my favorite parts of my job is being able to instant message or email crew scheduling/travel/dispatch. It doesn't always go as planned, but it's a great way to exercise my due diligence.

"I tried to contact you."

Flash mobs

Shoot, I'd sit on the phone max about ten minutes before I go get a cup of coffee and wait for the text or for them to call.

But five hours? They're doing the airline thing wrong.

No idea. A DL buddy sent it to me. Apparently it's something worth waiting 5+ hours for though.

Flash mobs

Yes!

Besides, there's Crew Scheduling, Crew Tracking, Crew Accomodations, not seeing a "Crew Coordinating".

Clearly @AAPalmTree's buddy needs to check dat numba!

On the new phones you can program what ever you'd like to name a contact.

Missed all 5 of my flight options to LGA yesterday. CS had me go to JFK instead then ride a van. Mile long line at the help desk. Today we were leaving ORF and I saw they cancelled both morning flights to ATL again for crew issues, the whole airport was packed with people in line and sleeping on the floor. What's going on over there?

It took my wife almost 24 hours to get from ORF-ATL-MSP yesterday with a confirmed ticket. It was nuts, finally got home at 5am this morning without her bags.

IT'S BEING RUN LIKE A REGIONAL!

(That's what you're supposed to say when your airline is melting down. )

Thats exactly were I'm at next week. Had this week bid off. Put in a GS, but someone took it on a WS, so I'm out!

 

[Seggy]

Surprised

I'm not.

Some of my Deltoid friends on The Facebook who were beating their chests over the BS no cancellation days day record are noticeably quiet this week.

I stretched a week into almost a month so I'd better check my currency!

Had originally turned a week off onto 21 days off, but the wife said that too long to be home in one stretch.
