Honestly have no idea which of the 100 threads about the 4th floor nonsense we’ve endured over the past two years to post this in, but
Jason Crude in Crew Planning has been officially forced out. They eliminated his position and basically forced him into retirement. Apparently HT’s job is secure now that they’ve got their scapegoat. |

There will always be a flow of easy, broken trips for those with the desire and means to drop their schedule. This benefits RSVs (less assignment/less efficient RSV utilization), low seniority pilots (who get the pick ups of the drops of the 'credit surfers'), and the high relative seniority pilots who get the high credit/low block broken trips that are never available on PBS, regardless of seniority. What the company wants is to be able to meter these broken trips straight to RSV assignments for free (no m7) that they view as no cost (ie against RSV guarantee...another false narrative, but I'll save that analysis for another day), forcing lineholders to fly their PBS schedules (less 'churn'). This is the big scheduling issue that we need to make sure we don't give away. |

We might be talking past each other here. I agree with your point here as I am one of those who has dropped their schedule and credit surfed for over a decade now. But it's not a false narrative to say that there hasn't been a recent increase in this strategy in hopes of easy/free money of m7 and QS. If that gravy train goes away, I'd guess that we'll see many of the recent adopters go back to their old ways, while you and I keep with this strategy. By gravy train, I don't mean moving RSV before WS, I just mean if they take away the ability to AA or something else that will drive down all the m7 being handed out like candy.
