Sounds like a great idea . Maybe during major Holidays allow working crew to just list positive space to and from work . For example from November 1st to January 7th and times like spring break months etc, and non holidays if you are commuting to and from work one would be an S1 based on seniority. It just seems weird that they would sunset it in October 31st when we’ve had it the past 2 years . Seems like a strange random date . How about after the holidays ?

It hasn’t been 2 years because the company wanted, it was one of “we didn’t think the government would do that” kind of thing.

JB didn’t want to risk it and extended theirs till January. Problem is we are not a proactive airline, we are reactive. So nothing will be done until after the meltdown occurs and causes havoc to tens of thousands of people…like the holidays. It will be hard to pin point it to PSC or not. But either way, nothing is going to happen in terms of us seeing any changes until the meltdowns.
plus it’s been a Tuesday and Wednesday and people are asking about results. Let’s see a couple weekends go by or thanksgiving then draw some conclusions. Comical people think a Tuesday is evidence they were right about PSC being a nothing burger.
Oh and BTW they are also blocking the jumpseat on OE flights so beware. Been discussed numerous times on FB if you didn’t see.

It seems weird that not having positive space commuting is viewed as potentially causing huge problems even though it didn’t cause huge problems prior to covid. Am I missing something? Company will book you a seat on your second flight if you can’t get a seat right?
I commuted for several years and now live in base. Maybe something has changed that I don’t know about.

Unfortunate on the timing, not ill planned. Not defending the company not extending it, but it was put in place when we really had no options during the massive Covid pull down. LOA 20-04 set a timeline for it and it was extended each time a cares act was passed.
