FDX - Deviation Q
I have a trip that ends with a D/H on October 26. I want to Jumpseat home, and then use the bank money to buy a ticket for a flight that departs October 28. I think this is OK because it is within 3 days of the end of my trip:
Section 8.C.4.d.
Section 8.C.4.d.
Travel claimed as a deviation expense must begin or end within 3 days of
the scheduled assignment to/from which the pilot is deviating (e.g.
scheduled deadhead, trip or R-day) and must proceed to the intended
destination of the deviation with no greater than a 24 hour delay enroute,
domestically, and a 48 hour delay enroute internationally.
the scheduled assignment to/from which the pilot is deviating (e.g.
scheduled deadhead, trip or R-day) and must proceed to the intended
destination of the deviation with no greater than a 24 hour delay enroute,
domestically, and a 48 hour delay enroute internationally.
My question is, can I use my bank money from October for this ticket, even though the actual travel date is in the November bid month? I can not find any place in the contract that talks about this????
Thanks in advance!

put in a fictitious "out of pocket" expense for $1.00 for the specific date in question.
before you hit the final "submit" button, the FOX system will ask you to select which bid period you want the expense to apply to......then you know (if it's slide-able or not.)
you can cancel out of the out of pocket expense before ever recording it.
if it doesn't give you a choice of bid periods, then it is not slide-able and you must take it out of the month that you spent it in.
make sense?
