Basically, just wait for crew scheduling to call or am I contractually obligated to acknowledge the trip if seen on Icrew. (I've heard captains tell me to do this)
Don't know that it will benefit you to do this in most cases. They will just call you at the 3 hr prior point to acknowledge it. You are obligated to check your schedule at least every 9 hours while on long call. If they placed the trip on your line in excess of 12 hours prior, then it is yours.
