This morning, scheduling calls me after I wake up and shower to tell me that I need to report 1:15 later. So I go back to sleep and the FA bangs on my door at the original report time and wakes me up. Um, could you possibly have called scheduling instead of bothering me?

Then we get to the airport to operate a LGA flight. Sched had taken me off of that and moved me to a CVG flight w/o notification. No captain. He's DH in at 10:30 for the 7 a.m. flight. The captain that flew in with us yesterday was DH back to CVG last night for no reason. So it ended up being a 4 a.m. wake-up for an 11 a.m. flight.

Now there will be two CVG flights departing at the exact same time. The flight went from 50 pax to 4. Almost everyone was rerouted on Eagle. How much did that cost?

I know the feeling.

Perfect example of our ancient scheduling system wasting money yet again. There is so much operational waste at Comair but, they come after the pilots when they need $$.
