The people who are not taking NB upgrade are more sr. than a lot think. Sr. enough to hold lines, but even at 60% in category horrible lines. Fixing reserve enough that sr. Pilots would bid down may improve those lines if some super sr. Pilots want that, but that’s a big maybe. I have a buddy at another legacy that is a very jr. line holder, he is able to drop and trade almost at will (even, and especially, trade to achieve different days off) We have zero flexibility. As some note we are ALWAYS below coverage. You want to entice the mid sr. Pilots living the easy life on the WB? Give them some control and flexibility. The biggest advantage of being a line holder used to be what could be done AFTER the monthly award, not necessarily what you were rewarded. It was a huge change in QOL. Now it’s worse days off than rsv, and the same bad trips, but zero hope in moving things around… Of course it’s all about me lol, and since no one is asking, what would get me to move over would be 5.5 hr credit per day so that busy NB schedules compensate closer to productive WB ones. And more importantly that the company has to staff a % of rsv pilots and cannot manipulate coverage numbers to block line holders from being able to trade for ‘gasp’ different days off. Otherwise like me I suspect we will all be waiting till 40% where we can maybe get weekends off. And the ranks filling the CA slots will be those stuck on rsv anyways, so might as well get CA pay.
