Default BOS-LGA shuttle

Anyone hear that the shuttle will be flown by the B-717?

I've heard rumblings along those lines. Pretty much anywhere you see an RJ now out east, you'll see the 717 as well.

Might as well, we've used just about every other fleet.

I got assigned short call for tomorrow and waited 2 hours and 5 minutes before acknowledging.

That's how I stick it to the man.

Yeah. Around here (CPS) they're saying SEA base is a real possibility (>50%), and they have no reason to say that - we have very few commuters from the PNW, so a SEA base means possible displacements. In my mind it's at least as likely they use SKYW, or some combination of both of us. Either way, DCI is definitely the chosen instrument to replace AS feed (actually in SEA, moreso QX feed).

Which is GREAT, don't get me wrong, but can I count on it continuing? Did they realize SC is in conflict with 117 or something?
I wonder if the company is artificially inflating the green slip response time sample size in an effort to compile data for upcoming grievances and/or readdressing 117 rules with the FAA.

"Guys aren't acknowledging normal assignments in a timely manner....but they have no problem acknowledging short notice green slips and flying the same trip with different rest rules."

Yeah I gave up on it....

Glad you enjoyed it though.

You end up getting any slack from the scheduler?
Or did they just show you acknowledged inside of flight ops instituted illegal 10 rest period?

Its not until 1000 tomorrow, and I acknowledged online... so no rest issue nor did I even speak to anyone. I was curious if they might get snippity and call since I waited over 2 hours just to test them, but nada.
