what if I told you that these premium trips can actually make you work a lot less? But yes I agree all that other stuff you said is great but you’ll never find an excess of reserves lying around like we had in covid. It doesn’t make financial sense to the company

Correction. Reserves laid unused prior to covid.

Ive been following this thread and I may have missed it but I would greatly appreciate anyone that could explain this. What exactly is prompting this apparent sudden surge in IA's? I'm used to getting green slip calls constantly and then suddenly out of nowhere not a single greenslip and now everything is an IA call from scheduling? Does the implementation of 18hr LC play a roll?

I corrected your statement that people are looking for covid era staffing levels. We’re not. We’re looking for pre RG sodomizer staffing levels. Buffers that protected the schedule and allowed phenomenal operational performance while allowing pilots more schedule flexibility.

Make sure if you have a GS in and you get an IA call, ACE it. We need to give ALPA all the data points we can for the grievance.
Seems much more manageable if Alpa would scout the trip coverage and just automatically open a report for every IA. |

The Union should be automatically invetigating all IA awards. I see multiple close in IA awards almost everyday in Atl yet I haven’t had an OOBGS call all month despite having a blanket request in. If I filed an ACE report for everyone of those I’d probably have 30 or 40 this month alone. Multiply that by the number of pilots skipped in the process (WS, OOBWS, GS, OOBGS) and the ACE app goes into grid lock.

When were these negotiations and what was the result?

Kind of ironic how all this IA stuff started immediately after we signed the PWA and left section 6. Almost like they knew it was a violation of the status quo.
