After it's been fixed at a lower level, send an email detailing the scheduler's intransigence to Ed S. The scheduler needs a little more light to shine on his cubicle.

Call the CLCP for your category. The scheduler works with and for the CLCP. If you get no help (unlikely) then call Ed S. Missing a graduation for an OE is stupid. The planner can swap a couple of pilots around with minimal fuss.

If I bid a 4 day domestic carry out trip the last day is dropped at least ⅓ of the time. No penalty to the company and no pay protection. Not sure why you would state that is BS. In fact there have been numerous posts by pilots on here about carry out trips getting shortened and losing layovers they wanted. I guess that's all BS also.

Guys,
I have a flight with a LCA this month. Originally I was going to use PB Days to drop it with pay, but then I thought I might get lucky and be bumped for an IOE.
Its kind of moot now - reserve coverage went negative for those days and so I used my PB days to drop a different trip.
I am curious about there being any way to know ahead of time if an IOE is being planned or scheduled? I think I will get a call the night before the trip if I get bumped, but are there perhaps any telltale notes on the rotation that might be revealing?
Thanks Scoop

Scoop,
I am on my third trip bought off in as many months. Here is how you can tell if it is being bought. On icrew go in and look at your schedule if you see an " L " next to the flight number it is going to be used for training. You usually will see it a couple weeks out but I have had some last minute stuff in the past where part of the trip was bought.
I will say thank you to DALPA for getting rid of the recovery obligation I have done GS flying over 2 of 3 trips and a WS over the other.

FYI United gets pay protection and spill trips go senior because they can double dip.

is the individual pilot qualified during TOE or does the original crew have to stay on the trip?
If the CA goes on break is the student considered qualified to stay?
