Dispatcher Blog

I stumbled across a dispatchers blog called My Fifty Percent. It gives a good inside view of the industry.
I believe the guy works for Delta.

Just thought I would pass it along, as it is a good read for those not familiar with the job, or maybe for those who are, and just want to see what another carrier is like.

A good blog - he works for Southwest though.

Great blog and I don't think it's a Southwest dispatcher because he talked about oceanic flights.

Ah yes, it looks like you are right. My bad. For some reason I thought he was in Dallas but I hadn't read the blog in a bit - anyhow I did some research and it looks like the original guess was correct.

Great read!

He goes my ACME Airlines, which I know someone else that works for Delta that refers to his airline as ACME, because he doesn't want to be a spokesperson for his company.
Interesting stuff though

As mentioned, he does not work for SWA. In fact he works for DAL.

Yup, he works for DL; he's a good friend of mine.
