Try it for a year, it's only about $60 now. The fee itself I believe is a write off and if it doesn't work for you, you're only out the $60. My guess is it will save you a lot more. Denny |

Short answer..................................YES! Even if it only saved me a hundred bucks, I'd do it ,cause I hate being (what I feel) is overly taxed.

Switched from Sabre Flightline to Pro Diem taking the advice of some of my fellow posters. $59 as advertised and quick turn around time. I have a MAC and the process took approximately 15-20 minutes and the report was sent to me the next day. Overall pretty content with my experience. |

I just spoke with them this morning on this subject...... Looks like they are planning to start processing them around the middle of February. When I questioned the delay I was told that the 2013 per diem rates haven't been published yet. :rolleyes:
It's a two hands in a bush and time value of money thing. |

I probably missed it so I will ask again. Will the company provide us with crew meals on these 8+ hour days, even though we arent going to block more than 5:XX hrs per segment? It seems like it would be efficient if the company provide us with a nice and balanced quality meal to keep us energized and awake. Without negotiating or giving up anything, I would think it would be in the best interest of the company to keep their "machines" fed and nourished.

Same idea as the 8hrs and 117 check your schedule debacle ongoing. Until enough pilots follow the rules as the see tem to a T, causing heartburn to the company, nothing will change! The last scheduler I spoke to actually mentioned the reserve guys being able to start no earlier than 12p in the first day back is causing many o the green slips and scheduling problems. Time will tell... |
