Does this stay in Daily Trip Coverage or does it pop up for a few minutes and disappear when they move on to the next person? I watch DTC pretty closely and have never noticed that before. Learn something new every day, thanks.

This was pre-ARCOS. It would change as they went through the ladder. ARCOS is different now.

Makes you wonder how often this happens each day…unnoticed.

LOA 20-04 allows them to stop the GS step of coverage all the way into the award window without having to pay a pilot for it. They can only go backward in coverage at that point or NOOP and split the rotation, then begin coverage again for the new created rotations. Obviously I haven’t looked at ARCOS or the TCs, but that sounds perfectly legal under the LOA.

​​​​​​Wait, what? It absolutely does not and I've gotten paid several times for 23M7 this year alone for the company stopping trip coverage to NOOP and split.

You might want to go look at LOA 20-04 section 5.B.2.5 where is states "...current offer and/or award call out may be stopped prior to the end of the 12- minute award window. In such event, no pilot will receive pay nor will there be any recovery obligation"

Waiting for my call…it gets awarded to a slightly more senior WS? I thought once a trip was on GS that’s it?
why are you bugging the schedulers asking about a trip that went out on proper coverage? ARCOS will call you when it’s calls you.

That does not mean that the company can stop and NOOP a trip without owing anyone pay. It does not trump 23M7.

Sort of correct. If they’ve attempted coverage, they are within their rights to NOOP a rotation. What they do with it next determines if an M.7 is due.

NOOP, split into two new rotations, run those two new rotations through coverage and cover them correctly = no M.7 due.

NOOP, split, send a few legs out to reroute, create a new rotation and run it through coverage = M.7 due for original NOOP rotation. (This is very common)

If on the other hand a pilot calls and wants it on a WS I am sure they would pull the coverage again in exactly 30 minutes.
this is not true. They have to start attempting to cover within 30 min not have a pilot accept within 30 min
