CRS - Complete Joke
CRS is an absolute joke when it comes to processing open time, trades, make-up, etc.
Real time trip trading is completely possible ... ALPA? Anyone? Crickets ....
Where is the accountability?
Can CRS just do their job or is it too much to ask.
Completely UNSAT time and time again.

It's always been that way. Over the years we've had numerous opportunities to fix this when Management needed our help and cooperation.
It doesn't seem like the computer programming would cost very much and it would give us more control over our lives.
I wonder what we'll have to give up to fix this annoyance?

The obvious step would be to do away with substitution. Even the regional pilots get paid and go home if the company cancels flights, changes gauge, etc.
That would allow real time trip trading.
However doing away with substitution would take a lot more negotiating horsepower and/or the will to use it.

Exactly.
OTP - open time PREMIUM.
125%. Pick your trip. Time stamp is your only adversary.
No expiration date.
PFS: Pretty Freakin' Simple.
Current book OTP IS DELETED.
CRS system upgrade is easier.
An 8th grader could do it for cheap.

Buy then we'd have to worry about 10 wolf pack members suing ALPA. Maybe that's already in progress?
