Arcos
Anyone else tired of Arcos? I put in some specific greenslip parameters to work today and tomorrow (yesterday). Got 3 calls from Arcos yesterday and selected all 3 trips to get 0 of them. Stop calling me if there's not an actual trip available to me.

Overall I prefer ARCOS over the old method though. |
File FCRs and copy that to an email to your reps.

Now that you can see where you sit in the queue I’ve seen myself as high as #19 in the pecking order.

Where does one view their position in said pecking order?

The busier a scheduler is the more likely it is he will run a large batch size. We need a contractual limit. I would suggest 5 max from 7AM to 10PM and 3 max overnight.

I don't mind an ARCOS call and not getting the trip, but the batch sizing needs to be reigned in. I don't care how busy scheduling is, as it is, they already have enough relief from the old school method by ARCOS. Anything between 2000 and 0600 should be 1:1 or the old school method of calling.

1:1 is my personal desire for any contact between 2100 and 0600 pilot base time. I needn't disrupt healthy sleep habits unnecessarily because Delta wants to carry inadequate reserves and I want access to premium pay. Why did we concede to this qol hit? |

Why do you think 2 pilots (and presumably their significant others) should be unnecessarily awakened for every 3 AM green slip... and also require them to remain awake for 15-25+ minutes while awaiting an answer?
