I was hoping one of you contract experts could explain the legalities of the below situation. I don't have a dog in the fight, I just happened to notice this as the trips popped up in open time last night and then disappeared. 727 line 130 started out as pure AM out and backs to BFM (trip #20) and then last night all 4 trips in the first week were revised to MEM-BFM-ORD-rest-ORD-IND-MEM night hub turns. That totally changes the nature of the line and the trips all go outside the footprint of the original trips.

So what happens to the guys holding the line? I assume they can decline the revised trips and go into substitution, right? If they do fly them, do they get extra pay (disruption)? Is there additional pay for going outside the footprint?

Thanks. Two years on the property and still trying to figure out how it all works.
