NYC765B 5-7 from bottom. Line 4 months reserve the rest. 90% London and São Paulo red eyes.
All that being said he made $22000 more than me last year!

Appears the summer off stick and carrot is being removed at the last minute. Shocking!

I called this weeks ago as the company was actively advertising that 717 crews would get converted earlier than deliveries.

I used to be a narrow body "A" from blockholder to reserve. VD to WB FO. Every holiday, weekend off. Usually get any WS and the occasional GS. Made 5k less last year, BUT QOL went up 500%. My days of 4-5 legs are over. (Until those rugrats are off to college)

Anyone done a buddy pass lately. I was quoting a friend how much it would cost and when I did the "fare calculator" on travelnet 2 prices came up. There was a yield $xxx.xx and a buddy $xxx.xx Do you add both to get the total or is the yield part of the buddy and you just end up paying the higher buddy amount? Confused?

We need to do away the GS system. It only benefits locals. I'm guessing over 50% of us commute. By not having 1.5 over say ALV for example, it's cost me over a $1500 this month. I don't pick up or trade, just fly what pbs gives me. With ALVs going up with the new contract we should work on this, possibly in any negotiation involving the Virgen code share. There can stil be double time for inverse assignments or reroutes into days off. I'm sure the other half that don't commute won't like this though.

The yield fare is for your kids, when they are over 23. For a Buddy Pass, you pay the buddy pass amount only, not both.

You're welcome, and remember, your kids over 23 are S3B, buddies are S4. Good luck.
