They must be new. Tell them open time goes to the senior folks and sometimes the fastest to reply if it's last minute. Company has thanked those picking it up. I guess they should have said - Thank you to those who are able to pick OT up....
Or, do they work at Kalitta or National, etc. Don't know if they have plenty or not so much. Maybe they were prank callers.
Or, DERA can teach them where to look specifically. I will say - check your email....
(Just counted 23 new OT emails since 2:56AM today.)

Right now even new guys get their pick. Likely will stay this way through peak.

If your buddies are actually on the 74, and not the 76, tell them to get on the Provern site. They will be overwhelmed with the available Open Time. There is no more VXing our days and waiting around for scheduling to call with a trip. If that is what they have been trying, we'll, they have been doing it wrong for a year.

Imagine if everyone smartened up by next June when outbasing returns and just refused. That would similarly force the company to offer more OT.

Certainly, as mentioned, far more open time on 74 than other fleets due to size. Now what the open time looks like after we have an estimated 140 downgrades and move some senior FO’s, hard to guess what it looks like.

The open time is real. On the 21st there was 40 events. Some events also have more than one trip/position/base to it. Example “Event 3” may have 6 trips. 3 for ANC 74 FO, 2 for 74 ORD CA, and 1 MIA FO.

Today 2 CAs picked up FO trips. For that other CA that trip pays over $15k to fly one leg as an FO.
And yet someone claims "my friends barely fly". His friends clearly don't know where our open time is published.
