If I am trying to get home and it is the last seat in the plane hmmm idk maybe If I have the priority I will take it instead of getting bumped. A12 is not confirmed as it would be a regular deadhead.
If you pick up OT out of a different base, you can call scheduling and ask for a dhd back to base on the last day, it is at discretion of CS to give you it; however; if they do they will give you an A12 pass at which point I am trying to get back home just as the guy next to me.
