Next day I️ called CS. 4 phone calls later, got paid over 29 hours for getting bypassed. Still like the idea of ARCOS, but like most things IT related at Delta, it still has issues. Watch carefully for being bypassed, it is happening.
I have heard a lot of pilots are being pay protected for missed greenslips since ARCOS started..Also, if you had "award if on duty or in the sim" you are entitled to pay protection for missed greenslips. Software wasn't set up for that.
