Those are closed days aren't they? I think blackout days are something else.

I've never heard the term blackout day.

Hey, it works with rampers... :confused:

Why buy pizza when you can get “All hands on deck” management types to ramp for free?

They publish blackout days every month. Many times it's "there are no blackout days for this month." But I've seen this on holidays and other famous days. For October, they made Halloween a blackout day.

Pilot site, Schedule, under Schedule News & Announcements, click "view full list." As of this moment, it's the first link.

Blackout is for after step trades, once open time is fully open. Normally, the MOUs for lineholder trading could be utilized if there isn’t reserve coverage for a trade. Blackout means the MOU rules are not allowed. Only traditional reserve coverage. Some holidays are automatic blackout and the company can designate a limited number more throughout the year.

Yes, don’t show up. Or if you do show up, look them dead in the eyes and tell them to go f themselves.

He asked for advice. I’m telling him the piece of advice that’s best for his future.. otherwise he is destined for a career where management gives him play dough on pilot appreciation day
