Hello all... looking for guidance to maximize my schedule after TOE completes. Filled up my schedule on shadow days and will complete training by the 10th of Sept...category 777B LAX...would like to pick up a trip later in the month..cannot imagine FAR limits will come into
play as large trips have dropped and I have one 4 day TOE trip scheduled...max pickup shows 22hours.. am I still bound by that limitation? I could always hope for a green slip but a swap with the pot is out of the question as I do not have any trips on my line to swap..any ideas or insight would be greatly appreciated.

Recommend you go to youtube and search for PBS bidding in a training month. There is a tutorial dedicated to what you are asking.
I don't do international so pointing this out is all I can recommend.
Good luck and enjoy the 777.

I think you are pretty much bound by the max pick up of 22 hours. As you alluded to, if you had a swapable trip, that's another story. You can go to the pilot swap board and see if there is a trip someone wants to get rid of........picking up from the swap board is not subject to max pickup limits. I would guess putting in a green slip will be the way you end up going. Good luck!
