Just convince the MEC not to give anything up for it.
Industry standard for being covered under a commuter clause is to have one commute flight (on any airline, not just your own airline) and a backup both prior to showtime. Doesn’t need to be complicated. Hell, some airlines only require 1 flight...
While we are at it, why is your sick bank docked for a fatigue call after the committee reviews it and seems it a legit fatigue call? I understand initially docking sick but how about a credit back after it is reviewed. If they created a schedule that caused you to not be fit for duty, shouldn’t you be paid and not have to get it from sick?
Sorry for thread drift...
