It might be time for me to get out.
Thanks,

What's getting so bad about it? Less international and more domestic? It seems like when I'm in PBI guys are saying that, NYC guys in particular. They say they are going down to ATL and bouncing around there until the last day when they get up to NYC again.
The reason I don't like the 7ER category is because the reserve rules seem even worse. I'm not very educated on them, but it seems that scheduling can assign 24 hr SC's? Is that correct? And they can do them back to back? How is this justified? Is it because a crew member gets rest on an ocean crossing? What if you're assigned a domestic trip? Then the Whitlow rule and lookback applies? Could you even get a domestic trip off of a 24hr SC?
Holy crap.....my head is spinning...
