Default FDX-Secondary Lines (Max BLG & Carryover)

Doing my first VTO in a while, and trying to put some trips together that will work for my schedule. I have a few hours of carryover into August.

The company published the max BLG FCIF a couple of days ago. When CRS puts together your line, do they include the carryover in the Max BLG equation? The two trips I want are less than the max BLG for my seat by themselves, when when you consider the carryover, it puts the BLG over by about an hour. Is that going to work, or do I need to fish for other trips?

They don't count the carryover towards your VTO BLG.

25.D.2.f. Carryover will not be included as part of a pilot's secondary line and carryover CH will not be part of the BLG/RLG for a secondary line. The secondary line will be constructed within the applicable line spread, and this will be done avoiding conflicts to the greatest extent possible considering the pilot's seniority, and whether he elected minimum days off protection...

Thanks

If you're Anchorage based don't put too much effort into building a VTO request list. In fact, just ask for what you don't want. You'll probably end up with something you do want.

Amen. Save yourself 5 minutes since you're gonna get boned anyway.

If it gets any worse we'll be pitching in for a statue of Michael S in the parking lot.
