I got a call this morning at 5:10am from a clueless and overwhelmed scheduler telling me to be at the airport at 6:30am. Are freaking kidding me?! Its amateur hour at Compass

If you check in on your phone in IOCC 1 hour prior to first flight of the day, it downloads the daily briefing PDF. It's actually quite useful, has tail numbers and MELs on it. It also shows the inbound of your first outbound fight of the day (naturally empty if it's the plane's first flight).
Thats kinda useful. Thanks for the info!

I guess if we are doing these stories, I've got a golden one.

scheduler 1 calls me at 0401 to give me a SAN turn with a 0714 report. Ok. While I am STILL on the phone with Scheduler 1, Scheduler 2 Calls. I hang up with 1 and click over to 2 and she tells me I have a SAN turn with a 1745 report. I tell her I just talked to her colleague and she might want to lean over and ask what's going on. Yep, definitely a 1745 report.

Fast forward to about 0900, I get a call from Scheduler 3 telling me I have a SAN turn with a report of 1315. lol, Ok. Fast forward again to about 1000, and I look in IOCC and there is nothing on my schedule, so I call to see what'ts going on.

Scheduler 4 has no idea I was EVER supposed to do a SAN turn and didn't really want to commit to what it was I was actually doing. I finally got her to specifically say I was on a RAP with no report time then she hung up on me.

Sure thing. The briefing also didn't work for me right after the cutover, but started working on this trip that I began yesterday.

Never worked for me. I should try it again. At one point i did get it to download some sort of odd file type, but that was it.

It's basically the gate agents version of FTweb. Deltanet -> Company -> View All -> Delta Connection -> Pipeline.

I saved it as a favorite on deltanet to get quicker access. Let's you know everything you would need to know. How many pax, what you're airplane is doing the entire day, APU deferred, GDPs, Crew members, MEL alerts.

Well I got one too. Got a call off PM ready to repo a plane. next morning I'm scheduled to DH home. I get a message at 7am from Scheduling from panicked scheduler telling me I have 1230 show for a turn. kind of hard to do since I'm in a hotel and not going to be back in LA til 1245. I call them back and get a guy that knows what he is doing. I tell him I am not in LA and I repoed at plane last night. He says, ok they called the wrong number so just disregard.

with the reserve availability chart being what it is now, it is hard to tell if they are calling the right person in the silo or not. for example today they are sending out emails for CRI trips tonight, but looking at the chart it looks like they have FOs available, so why not asssign them?
