For pilots who use sick leave properly it can be a benefit because it will award that flying to the pilot who should have received it in the first place.
I was just told 30 days at the bottom following my sick call. I dropped a trip back on DEC 20 (first PCS run) and intended to pick up something else because I need a specific day off. A WS went out junior to me so I called to ask why. You guessed it......sick call sends you to the bottom of the list for 30 days. edit: Just read 23.P.3. That seemed to clear things up....NOT. :confused::rolleyes: I don't think the scheduler or I have any idea how this is supposed to be applied. Time to call my rep. Again. Glad we vetted this fully before the vote. ;) |

If you could have legally flown the trip had you not sicked out you need to call and get paid for it. If you needed the sick call in order to be legal for the trip the scheduler is correct.

I don't think they know. This "30 day" thing is nowhere in the PWA.

That’s not contractually legal. The company did attempt that to a certain extant however it was grieved and settled in our favor.
I guess my greater point is that just because a guy is being rerouted, that may have nothing to do with whether or not guys have WS or GS requests in. Further explanation is a lot longer discussion. Sent from my SM-G900T3 using Tapatalk |

Your statement is very generic, as was my first. There are times when a reroute is what is needed. Many other times crew tracking calls scheduling with a "will need" (not sure of the exact verbiage).

True. And a good point that all pilots should know.
