By the time I got connected to a scheduler they were already gone, assuming they were still showing on MiCrew to begin with. Some to junior pilots as would be the correct order, but recently several were already awarded to pilots thousands of numbers senior to be before I got any kind of call, and that is making me scratch my head. Oh BTW, had Greenslips in for all those days and never got an ARCOS call either.
While an IA is supposed to be awarded in inverse seniority, in reality, the robocall goes out and it’s first come first awarded.
