Thank you for that.... Yeah, I saw most of it. But as you can imagine some of it I missed after 900+ pages worth of information. There were one or two things I wasn't clear about which were the things I asked.

I appreciate it!

 

Because they're buying the ticket, they'll have you fly into base and get proper rest before your assignment. If you live in Florida and are based in ANC, that could be as much as two full days off prior to your first day of work. In CVG on the 767, they'd want you there about 2 pm-ish the day prior if you're dong domestic routes.

Days off are days off. You get your bid @ 21st of the month prior. If you bid/get a reserve line, you have to check your schedule 30-35 hours prior to your first reserve window to see if you need to be notified of a trip. If on reserve, you can be extended up to three days at the end of your trip. Also applies to lineholders, but only if it's your last scheduled flight that gets impacted so close to launch that they can't get anybody else in position. You won't have many choices to start, but as the 767 becomes the new-hire airplane, you should see consistent movement upwards due to growth or if that dries up, retirements/attrition. We lose 50/year in a normal year, should be considerably higher until we fix the CBA.

 

Gateway they airline u from gateway to wherever they want u to go, not necessarily to your base. I am jfk 747. This trip I was airlines my first day of work. Usually it is last day off. I usually get home 1 day early...sometimes 2 days early, sometimes lay day of work.

U can also airline alternate travel. That is when u r airlined NOT to from your gateway. Like u want to visit mom, so airline they'd instead of gateway. They will approve it depending on cost and other factors.

All travel same if reserve out line. Dint really have reserve pilots...will probably get complete trip before reserve period starts starts starts.

Pm me if u want.

 

Just alternate traveled for the first time yesterday so I can vouch for that. Instead of flying me home, they are flying me to a fly - in I wanted to go to because it was basically the same price for the ticket. it should also take the imputed income out of the scenario

 

Alternate travel shouldn't effect your imputed one way or the other... Imputed is all predicated on your base, not your gateway.

If you're based in ANC and your gateway is ATL... You can go from HNL to ANC, ATL to ANC, or anywhere else to ANC you're liable for imputed. Now if you went ATL to Somewhere other than ANC... No imputed.

Same holds true for going home... If they bought you ticket from your base to anywhere... Imputed.

 

Not sure about that. The imputed income letter states that you are only liable for travel between your gateway and base. no combination thereafter. I traveled home hnl - atl and lhr - atl with no imputed and they tag me for everything. Just like if you jumpseat out of your base and get a ticket home after that. that gets you out of the imputed income arena as you are not going between your gateway and base.

 

misread what you wrote on my second redeye at the end of my pattern. you're mostly correct.

 

I applied several years ago, and as I understood at that time, gateway travel to base and back were included in your 17 days. Is that still the case? From some if the comments I've read recently I'm not so sure....

 

By contract the company has you for 17 workdays. If the first of those days or the last of those days has you working (operating as opposed to positioning) then you'll need to Gateway on a day off to get there in in time or get home after the trip is done. Mostly, it depends on where you live as to how often that happens. I live in the hinterlands of northwest Montana so I do it often. If you live near a major airport it will happen less often. The key is to see when your trip begins Z time and then work backwards to figure that out.
