Flight Benefits

[YVINTERN]

I liked your trip report. I thought the replies were kidding around; mine was, anyway.

😉 I love sarcasm at it's best 🙂

Do any of you know how the training is done? They said that I would have to go to either PHL or CLT for a week.

Fleet Service 2 weeks training.

I'd try and bid CLT if you could 😉 Friendlier people...southern charm...less hectic than Philthy...and when the sh!t hits the fan at CLT...it's managable...at PHL...if the #### hits...they'll just walk out(they being the inner city rampers) :down:

 

[SegmentKing]

Excuse me? You want to say that to my face? I'll give you a free flight to where the sun doesn't shine.

If its on UsAirways, just send him thru PHL... that will teach'em!

Bags... gone forever

Ontime.. whats that?

meal? there's a food court over there *points between B & C*

Oh, yer an employee... and? that drink is still $5.

Of course they just walk out. Given what they're paid, they know they can replace the job easily with one that probably has a lot less hassle. And, with a major airline as their last employer, the new boss knows that they might at least pass a drug and background check.

Also, pay no attention to the jerks who replied, they obviously are trolls. 😉

Always take a good book to read when you are non-revving.

Like The Three Billy Goats Gruff.

I would guess that would be correct.

Call me cynical if you wish, but I believe the reality of trying to non rev when load factors everywhere are at all time highs will be quite discouraging to the new hires.

"Having said that", 🙄 "welcome aboard, rookies"

You are in for quite an experience.

And there are many better companies to have gone to work for, and better airlines too, but welcome to our nightmare and to our one big unhappy dysfunctional family.

Please keep us posted as to how you perceive things as you progress.

Good luck and be safe, the ramp is an extremely hazardous and dangerous workplace.

MOST STAR ALLIANCE carriers HAVE ZEDS, ONLY UNITED who is not on the ZED program gives us I-95 and that is for the EMPLOYEE, SPOUSE and dependants.
