It will vanish eventually, they're just seeing if you will bite.

Or a standup, or a red eye...exc. If the EFB locks you out unless you accept changes they can have even more control over your life than they already do. At least with the current setup they have to at least halfway make up their mind at least a small time in advance. With this system they could constantly change your assignments giving you min rest and turing everyone into 24 hour reserves. AM and PM would be out the window even more than it already is.

Then there's the issues with the lineholders. 30 hour overnights, turns getting added on MDG days, exc.

SAPA should be asking for the moon if they're even considering this.
