I messaged the LCA but no response. If I get released at the gate, what would be the earliest report for a GS/WS assuming I’m fortunate enough to pick up something out of Open Time? Would I need 10 hours of rest?
For anyone interested, Here is how it played out: I ran into the LCA in the lounge about 20 minutes prior to sign-in and he immediately had me go-ahead and call CS to be released. After 20 minutes on hold (I walked with LCA to the gate during this time) the scheduler answered and said they would need to speak to LCA in person to authorize my release. So I handed my phone over for the Captain so he could take care of that. I never actually signed in for the trip. Afterwards, I told him thanks and headed back to the lounge. When I got back to the lounge I checked ICrew and it showed “23G5” on my schedule for the rotation on March 31 and the 3 spillover days in Apr. Timecard showed same code with the appropriate pay and credit for March 31 and the spillover days.
I headed back to the parking lot and by the time I started driving I got a call notifying me of a 3-day reserve rotation starting on 1 APR. Looking back at the daily coverage for the March 31st, had I been released the night before, I would have gotten a GS …
