in regards to picking up open time in IOCC. Do the messages you can send ever get a response?

I’m trying to pick up an open time turn on the afternoon the day before I start a 6 day block of RSV1. IOCC denied me because my required rest was below the 10 hours needed before a reserve day, I sent a message asking if they could move my reserve show time (there are 18+ reserves that day). Will I get a response through IOCC or is that message feature just not checked.

You should definitely email trip trades for requests like that

And then they will deny you “for coverage”

And this is why you bid RAP 3 if you can't get LCR.

Hahah when you’re 20+ seniority numbers away from a line and moved up 3 whole numbers last month. RAP3 let alone LCR are less likely than finding a 50+ year old in one of our cockpits.

8 Captain upgrades for July? We are losing 15 captains a month which will increase in the summer, last vacancy we only awarded like half of the target upgrades, leaving a deficit, and now we are going to only upgrade 8, in the middle of our summer flying season?

The company is trying to save money on payroll, in violation of the CBA.

The Company will employ a sufficient number of Pilots to
cover all known Flying, vacation, sick leave, scheduled training, Company-related business, known leaves of absence and other known unavailabilities, and staff the
operation so as not to unduly disrupt the schedules of Lineholders and will maintain an adequate number of reserves to cover unforeseen operational needs, to avoid the frequent modification of schedules of Lineholders, and to avoid excessive junior manning.
The company has been in violation of this for years. It’s not fair that lineholders that should be getting days off are stuck working coverage trips instead of being with their families. The company is making NO effort to correct this and should be forced to pay a heavy price for this willfull violation.


If they can continue to profit by running thin and treating their employees like slaves, and dodging any punishment/minimizing any grievance pay, they will continue to do exactly what they’re doing.


Every single pilot at this company is affected by this and every single one of you should be emailing the union about this.

Same book, same story just a different page. This is the same thing that happened 2-3 yrs ago. Obviously if they could upgrade max capacity they would. But don’t forget, the company also has to make sure the ca to fo ratio is somewhat neutral. Otherwise we will be hearing that stupid “right seat qualified ca” bs again

The vacancy bid has always amazed me when it comes out and I see like 2 or 3 sometimes zero SEA FO positions available. I think how is this possible when as an FO in SEA I have never been able to drop a single trip in a year and a half. Oh well, obviously the company knows more than I do when they decide to do certain things that make no sense to everyone else besides them.

I've seen this same cycle repeat itself about three times since coming here. "Oh my God! We don't have enough captains! Stop hiring FOs so we have enough capt upgrades! Oh my God! Now we don't have enough FOs! So stop the upgrades! But nobody wants to come here because our bonuses suck! What do we do!?!?"
