Trip cheater/wolf pack equalizer
Ok, if you are like me you're tired of seeing the same small group of dudes on the company's greatest trips. Some of them are getting these trips honestly (secrets of the contract), and some dishonestly (termination if caught).
This post will hopefully equalize the honest method and allow more pilots to utilize the contract fairly for great trips, and not just a select few.
1. get a carryover trip, the longer the better.
2. Bid a secondary line the following month.
3. Ask for MIN DAYS OFF on your secondary line construction.
4. Your secondary line will be built up to the secondary line guarantee, minus the carryover credit hours (C/O + Secondary = Secondary BLG)
5. The remaining hours (the carryover hours), will be placed in your bank as PNP (Priority Non-Premium).
6. Accumulate these PNP hours and get second dibs (PMU gets first dibs) on the sweet X-Pairings and Charter trips.
7. To Take it a step further:
a. Drop your crappie trips (or entire month even)
b. VIPS, bid line adjustments, general makeup submission.
c. enter local base date you wish to fly (you can do this for every day of the month if you wish)
d. select PNP and then enter.
e. in RED it will display how many other pilots are requesting make-up (shows ALL m/u requests not just PNP) for this date.
f. select your restrictions (e.g.. intl only, double deadhead, 4 day max, ect...).
g. wait for crew scheduling to hopefully assign you a sweet trip, even while you are asleep.zzzzzz
