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.

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

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.

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.
