Yes, which I thought was odd that he quoted the 12 hour leash. :confused: Oh well, I was told not obligation so that’s what I’m going with. So far I’m 2/2 on single day trips I picked up. Had no idea this would happen when I did it.

My biggest fear is not commuting up for a 7:30pm report due to no op and getting assigned something the next day before first commuter flight gets in. After all, they are cancelling 10-12 of my commuter flights everyday.

I'm thinking I should commute up and get a hotel. Did I read somewhere Delta will pay for that hotel?

I read that also. Just had my second single day trip NOOPd. It wasn’t until Sunday. Glad they are calling this far out.

Assuming your flying satisfies 23K1 requirements, Section 5E1c 1-3 may apply. I'd call and ask or maybe pilot assist can help you.

I’m not happy about the new policy. I think it only screws us for longer call outs.

I thought about this as soon as it came out. Kind of gives them more time to screw you. But, considering NYC 320 had 47% 1 day trips recently it works out nicely.

Please explain how it gives them more time to screw you? I don’t think you understand how it works.

I am now basically a reserve pilot with a 12 hour call out. There are times I will not be able to make that commute if given a 12 hour call out. This is why I don’t bid reserve even when it is monetarily more beneficial.

I agree this is a majority good deal. But it isn’t for me. I do not wish it changed as it helps more pilots out. I just don’t like it.

I wouldn't sweat a 12 hour call-out at all. If scheduling assigns you a trip that you have trouble making call crew assist. With all the flight cancellations this is going to become more common.
