don’t fool yourself, we do too. “For res only from NYC xxxx”

I think you misunderstand what they mean, it's not moving trips from one base to another. From my understanding global reserve is when you only have 3 days left on reserve, but scheduling needs to fill a 6 day trip. The company can move reserve days from later in the month and viola you now have 6 days available, have fun on your 6 day. In 3 years on 330, I have never been worked more than one day into my off days. That one day was only because DTW shut down for half the day.

ahh, thanks for the clarification

Yeah I think “global” reserve is a poor term. It’s more like “rolling” reserve...

I dont make up their terminology

13,250 Junior Captain

Calling it now.

Then all the 9500-13249 are gonna ***** it's out of seniority, even though they could have held it if they bid it.

Most likely NYC 717A.
NYC 220A wildcard, depending on how people like the bid pack.

I know, that wasn't a dig at you.

Then file a grievance with the union if someone jr to you gets a Capt spot you bid for...

He was making a joke.

Well aware, but it’s over played, and heard it too many times when I was a capt “out of seniority” 🙄, but thanks for speaking on his behalf.

I think a MOAB will result in a Captain at 12,700. If it’s a smaller bid, I think it will be around 11,000. The NB schedules in NYC are pretty terrible lately.

Ah, no worries.

I gotta say, after listening to BS talk about their new tool for looking at AE bidding and future AE’s.............their more AE’s more often strategy is gonna go by the wayside.....and we are back to fewer/larger AE’s. Gee, that lasted a long time....not.

Until 6 months from now when they say back to smaller more frequent aes 😂

Sort of an AE optimizer.

‘And we know how well optimizers work. :eek:

It‘a a study of contrasts. They’re either complaining they’re fatigued all the time or gloating about how they’re getting 160 hours of pay a month.

It’s called Global reserve because you can only have your days rolled for a global trip (outside CONUS/MEX/CAN/Hawaii).

they cannot roll your days for a transcon. The worst I ever had I 1 day left rolled into a 6 day trip. The worst part is you don’t get to pick the days you get back, they are taken from your next reserve block.

Uniteds Reserve sucks something fierce.......I know Iv been on it nearly my entire career. IF the UAL MEC puts capital into that section we’ll have a pretty good contract.

as far as NB CA vs WB FO.....I can be bottom line holder on the 777 in SFO/EWR and on the CA side I can be bottom line holder on the 320 in SFO/EWR. Reserve sucks bad that’s why the WB goes junior on the reserve side and senior on the lineholder side.
