PCS while waiting for TOE/IOE
Question for the PWA/scheduling guru's. Is there anything contractual that guarantees the right to utilize PCS? Finished the 44x early January. In December, not knowing anything about specific OE timeline expectations, I swapped up to the limit for credit in January. February I was locked out, all requests denied for no OE yet. Now I've finished domestic OE, and awaiting TOE. PCS currently blocking me from WS'ing late in march. Is it unreasonable (contractually) to say I could still be given TOE at any time and I should be able to modify my schedule? Haven't looked deep yet, but I'm guessing there's something about "qualified bidder" etc.

TOE has to be complete. That’s because you can’t fly domestically until TOE is complete.

They fixed the glitch. I don’t disagree with you, but that’s the way it works

Yep. They used plenty of loopholes like "schedulers discretion" when determining how many short calls to give out and what days available bucket to pull from. Just trying to see if the loophole existed or it was just a glitch (which is now fixed).
