Anyone else notice how even after they build the MEM based trips to cover the disputed EUR trips and MEM based pilots pick them up. They leave the same flights open in the EUR domicile just in case a EUR based pilot changes his mind I guess. Just click on the flight number for the disputed trips next week. Two capts and two FO's assigned for each leg. The EUR seats are still open. Good job guys!

I know it has got to hurt to turn down that AVA money only to see some one from MEM drop trou and bend over for it. But in the big picture you are costing the company money and hopefully it will make for better schedules over there.

The same thing happened last week. Even for the trip that wasn't disputed it stayed in the EUR open time for a long while. Probably hoping to get a Euro pilot to pick it up.

While I realize it may be pointless, ALPA should be sending out an email to alert folks not to pick these things up. I know that they are technically not disputed but they're not helping as usual. A short layover is still a short layover.

Technically, it is still a disputed pairing!

"Disputed Pairing" is the term used but it is really a disputed segment/sequence. If that segment/sequence is flown enough times voluntarily it is no longer disputable.
