I just checked on DL Net, none of the F/O bids are posted yet. Yowza, I hope this isn't the "New Normal". Also we had an unprecedented amount of open time left over in the ATL 777 A. 35 LINES of open time!! On a normal month we might have 2-5 trips in open time. But 35 LINES??!! Many of those lines were worth 62 hours!
The new FAR117 rest rules have ruined one of our most prevalent trips (NRT-SIN) and turned it into a 10 day, 62hr. nightmare which is nearly impossible to build lines with. That trip, and trips like that in all the other categories, is probably what's causing the bids to take so long to be processed, and causing a huge amount of open time to be left over.
God help us everyone!
(the guys who bid reserve should make a killing using Rolling Thunder and picking up that trip, twice!)
