And the cost neutral claim you like to make about every section. Wrong! More guaranteed days off, earlier DRO, no starts before 1000/1400 on day one. Earlier auto-release on the last day, ability to bid 18 days on in a row and the company has to figure out your 30/7 rest, delayed past 0300 now pays an extra day or requires compensatory day off. Those all cost the company money and are all significant improvements in the reserve section.
I could go on but I won’t because it’ll fall on your “cost neutral” deaf ears.
You act like I know nothing of reserve.
First, I said it was rarely Not never used. I sit reserve. I have broken guarantee 2 months a year, in the summer, on average. So no doubt it does happen and it's good we have the language to address it.
How much does an earlier DRO cost? Also, what is the DRO time at DAL?
I will ask that again since the answer highlights how substandard our new reserve is.
What time is the DRO released at DAL?
The day off coming out of the companies budget of PRL days is straight from ALPA's mouth.
LCR will be doing all the crap flying. It is also the only sort of reserve where the bypass language means anything. The junior guys on LCR will hate life.
The junior guys on SCR will be on Silo D every day. Look at the language.
If that isn't the junior guys getting reamed I don't know what is.
I guess I should say it will be more or less cost neutral. Certainly there are improvements. But it is well below industry standard.
What time is the DRO released at DAL again?
