Default FDX deviating on carryover

If I have a carryover trip that has a back end dh and I deviate can the bank money be applied to November or will it only be bank money for October? Thanks

The bank money stays in the month that the scheduled dead head is in. Sounds like your deadhead is in November since you're talking about a back end deadhead. So your November bank will have that dollar amount.

If your deviation flight is within 3 days of the October bid month you can slide your deviation charge into the October bid month expense report.

The wording in the contract allows for devation expenses to be slid if incurred within 3 days of the end of the carryover trip no matter how late in the month the trip ends.

The deviation expenses can be slid...But, the bank money remains in the scheduled D/H's month.

8.C.2.a.a. A pilot shall have a deviation bank established for each bid period. The value of the deviation bank shall equal the value of the scheduled deadhead tickets for trips flown during the bid period plus the value of any scheduled deadheads for recurrent training. However, if a deadhead trip is changed or canceled by the Company, the deadhead bank monies remain intact. A deadhead associated with a carryover trip shall be credited to the deviation bank for the bid period containing the showtime for the deadhead.

I didn't want to start a new thread for one question, so I'll piggyback here.

How much are you allowed to add on as a tip for deviation GT to the hotel. I'm using Golden Touch in NY and the company card.

I don't know that there is a standard/max. You just add it to the bill and expense the entire bill. If you split it out as a tip
, it won't be paid...

$100 for GT unless you get your ACP's approval for more.

If you have a carryover trip that is a double DH, be careful. I got burned trying to equal out the tickets, the front end was more than the back end, and the total amount doesn't apply, it is just each bid month.

The "Standard" FedEx tip is 20%.
Of course, that's just an Auditor imposed rule.

Piggy Back

Can you buy a round trip ticket and expense it?

You have the bank. All in the same bid month.
End a pairing on the 21st, ticket home on the 22nd, MEM to XYZ.
Begin a pairing on the 29th, ticket XYZ to MEM on the 28th.

So roundtrip ticket MEM-XYZ-MEM. Each travel day is within 3 days of a trip pairing.

I have always done one way tickets, but have been looking at round trips. They would be cheaper and save money. Can I expense this type of deviation?

Skim, call Brenda M. in crew travel audit and get the definitive answer - she's more than willing to give you a straight answer and tell you if it is allowed, how to do it.
