No....

But when open time is released you could usually expect to get first dibs.

And there's the rub...not so much open time to choose from these days plus you've got to be quick on the draw. Good luck.

One thing you could do is submit a general makeup request for a specific day you would like to work.

PMU is an option.
And, can submit up to 20 trip restrictions for that request.

Should put you first in line for the daily sick call trips.

Not that anyone can actually use their sick time anylonger

don't quite understand it, but, apparently we have so many extra pilots on reserve that you have to be in the hospital to use sick leave.

Guess just proves I don't get the big picture because I'd of thunk they'd only be cracking the whip on sick leave if we were short
