More importantly, am I pay protected for the credit that should've spilled into June (was kind of counting on it for bidding purposes)? Thanks.
They change the rotations because month to month the flying can change. There has to be a method to smooth out the transition. Any transition trip is at risk to be changed. No pay protection for the following month since you have not yet bid that schedule. The only good news is if there is credit in the trip that credit will be paid in May vice June so you might have more hours in May. Be aware they can lengthen as well as shorten a transition trip. We got additional protections against longer trips in the last contract but they can still add a day.
