I'm not sure if all the crews that picked those trips up are commuters, but some are. If they've hooked those trips to another pairing, the possibility of an 8/24 violation may still exist. An FAA violation, certificate action and a fine might be what it takes to get some attention here, and you can be assured with the attention crew rest/fatigue are getting, they'll be looking.

What I don't get is, why don't they care? The earlier comments about getting a better contract, or, more specific wording baffle me. Folks, the SIG/PSIT disputed these things! The Company agreed they were bad and allowed the dispute! I shouldn't need better wording to understand these pairings SUCK, and they need to be avoided. DON'T FLY 'EM!!!

You know, this next negotiations is going to be very contentious. If we can't hold the line on something as simple as a disputed pairing, what the heck are we going to do when the 23:59 moment comes, and the tough decisions have to be made!
