First time setting up ARCOS and putting in for a GS.

Has it gotten any better in the last year?

You can review the trip(s) directly in ARCOS without going to iCrew?

You put in your desire for the trip or not in ARCOS and wait for the call back?

Short answers:
Yes, yes, yes.

You can see the basics of the trip (sign-in, how many legs, where you're flying, etc.). Enough to decide if you want the trip.

You can accept or decline trips and put them in order of preference. You can also see your spot in line (e.g. you are #16 of 18 guys) and see who else has acknowledged the trip.

I think the bolded part is only true if there's one trip being sent out. If there are multiple trips in one batch you can only see who has put in for any trip and how many trips they put in for, but not specifically which trips each person wants.

It puts a number based on where you (and everyone else) ranked it.

Has anyone else noticed the ARCOS call outs are coming from an ‘unknown’ caller ID? I have reported it to the company and ALPA.

Vietnam for me. Maybe they have a contract out for the lowest bid on phone service?

Or maybe we are entering into JVs for our crew scheduling?
