· Section 25.S.2.e.
You walk into AOC expecting to fly an easy GSO pm out and back. You’re senior, and you’re looking forward to a white box of catering, a quick nap in a hotel, and an early arrival back into MEM. Scheduling calls, and they need you to fly to CPR-BOI instead. You say, “But I didn’t bid CPR-BOI? I’m senior!” They say, “Enjoy your flight, you’ve been revised.” Management has been practicing this type of revision in the recent past. Now this Out and Back Disruption is institutionalized in the TA for 1.5 CH.
Section 25.S.2.f.
You have packed your swimsuit and plan to spend your layover in the sun in FLL. Next thing you know, you are wishing you had packed your parka for YEG. What happened? Single Layover Disruption happened. The company needs a pilot up north, and for 3 CH you get to pay the price for not getting to fly south where your seniority is.
The addition of these Section 25 provisions codifies these “Trip Revisions” and removes the possibility of SUB with OTP options in these instances. CRS can now revise your trip using concrete language in the TA. The added CH penalty is nice, however, these revisions abrogate seniority; at their best they pay equal to or less than draft, and they give the pilots no options.
She is absolutely right! This TA has now codified trip revisions and given the company carte blanche to change your schedule WITHOUT YOUR INPUT OR APPROVAL.

The revisions mentioned could happen under the current contract and the 2006 contract which >90% of the membership approved. The difference now is that you get extra money for it. How does this codify these revisions more than the 9 years we have been working under the same rules?
