Did anyone mention odds are pretty slim of a 777 trip being available, you know, to fly Extra at straight time.

OR, You can tell Scheduling to kiss off with no ramifications and they drop the trip and give you the option to Makeup that cancelled trip at 125% of Pay.

OR, if Scheduling needs your Trip to Show or Return late...they might offer you a Reassignment Trip (Pay code RAT) and you get the Highest of the Original Trip guarantee or RAT trip guarantee at 125%
Did anyone Mention that you Don't have to accept the RAT trip? YOU can tell Scheduling to kiss of with no consequences other than remaining eligible for Substitution

So, Scheduling Offers you a Substitution Trip...did anyone Mention that you can tell Scheduling to kiss off? Consequence is that trip pay drops into your regular makeup bank.
But I'd rather do that than fly a 4 leg AM out and back to Memphis.
