If you can I'd lean towards staying home and coming in later. Yes, you'll miss out on maybe some EDP if that later flight delays a bunch because you would have dutied on much earlier, but personally that's not worth trading for a good chunk of time at home. The other issue is with a later report time you legally can fly much later into the night on a delay, but if things push to the point you're not fit then just call out fatigued.

Thank you, good info to know. They ended up keeping original report, giving me a 0000 ATL-ATL "flight", then 7 hour domicile layover. Obviously not long enough to count as a layover and I still have my original report time. But with this change it sounds like my FDP clock starts as normal but now I can stay home

Yeah, I would say clock starts and you are sitting at home. Win win.

Depends…REG or RES…did they notify you? Did you acknowledge or not? Highly recommend you take a peak at the SRH section on recovery….has a 23K FAQ section and a “is my recovery assignment legal” flowchart.

What's this? You don't your PWA chapter and verse? Shame on you.

This falls in the "happens so rarely I'll worry about it if/when it ever happens" category.

Like those random 2-3 months a year I get slapped with reserve

You’re joking……but the # of pilots that have NO idea what’s in the contract, even the major items, astonishes me.

Maybe I should start a PWA study. First session will be studying from the book of reroute

Not complete without the apocalyptic follow up. “And the seventh arbiter poured out his bowl of maple syrup and called out in a loud voice to heaven saying it is done…..”:D
