Now we're waiting on the status of the codeshare with LX... It will be interesting to see how much longer it will take until this one gets set in stone.

Ok I knew I was going to get absolutely flamed for those comments... Before you all flame me for being some kind of west apologist I jsut want to make it known that I worked first for an Express Contract carrier and now for what would technically be US "East" though I try to see it as a single...

And make the lives of the rest of us front line employees absolutely miserable! Each work group has its grievances but actions like those serve only to create even more anamosity between the various employee groups. Every misconnect can cost me anywhere from 3-20min of additional time spent at...

I will have to completely disagree. I have found Doug to be both very approachable and quite caring and understanding. I have had the luxury of being involved in a conversation in which he took part and he was both courteous and very much appreciated everyones opinions... even those froma couple...

I can only come up with 5 :)

I will grant you that it's only one flight per day though it is about 30-40 conx pax onto about 20 flights on usually around 6 or 7 different airlines. Just today I got to rebook about 100 outbound conex from PHL due to a LAE delay. Don;t mean to sound too defensive. I don't claim to have any...

100% agreed there!!! I think you are onto something with your vacations idea. I wish they would market a little more... THey are pushing our start-ups this year of ZRH, BRU and ATH but I still feel they could do more with both these and other destinations. ZRH and BRU are of course difficult as...

Thanks for welcome... Been a long time lurker but figured you all could deal with my opinions (no matter how wrong they may be) :) I completely agree with your analysis though I feel that it really only applies during peak travel periods. Looking at winter loads to Europe it seems that we won't...

You are right about that. I now work at a European station for US and have to say that in my experience I really don't feel the problem is as bad as has been made out to be. Thats not to say that there aren't a bunch of issues; Tipps has been disabled for Europe so we have to calculate fare...

I completely agree with many of those concerns, I just wish everyone could be that constructive when making their positions known on labour issues within our operation.

It these kind of attitudes; Senior v. Junior, E v. W, Union v. Management, ect... that are absolutely killing us! The "we know better" or "they have no idea" attitudes have to stop if we are going to get anywhere as an airline. You are more than entitled to your view of the t/a but at least...

Lets face it.... Our profitability on European routes does come largely from the Economy class. The decision to downsize Envoy makes perfect sense. I have rarely seen more than about 15 business fares on a flight and most of these are discounted Z fares at that. The remainder are Go Envoy, I...

You can always go in a detatch the etkt out of the voucher res and attach it to the new res. I have done this a couple of times and it works just fine. As bad a rap as Qik has I have not once (using it first as an HPex agent and then now as a US international agent) had a situation which...

You could always file the fare on your own including taxes... I've had to do that for a number of inter-european fares on LH or LX. Use Ctrl Q. It's a great feature! You need to sell open segments in HK (ctrl I, F1) and then add in reservation details (w/o a priority). Then in the Ctrl O pass...
