Travelnet question: Do passriders (specifically buddies) who get on the first leg of two still have higher priority on leg 2 or did that go away? (IOW, do they sill compete to get on as an S4 at a hub city or do they have elevated priority on leg 2?)

It's very rewarding to be able present our pilots with their retirement picture and pin. Sometimes there is even some cake to be had!! PM me if you are interested in becoming a member of the committee.

How bout this? Without any changes to my bid award starting the end of June.
W= a work day
O= off day
WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW OO WWWWW
That's domestic flying 19 straight days. (24 out of 26). Sure there are 30 hour layovers in places like Huntsville and a red eye. Oh and some 0625 reports in ATL.
I wouldn't believe this would EVER, EVER be a possibility

This better not become the norm. I see lots of sick calls. This is one of the first times it has not honored my basic bid of no less than 72 hours off between trips. The higher the ALV the lower the spread should be. IE: 84 ALV= + or - 2. 72 ALV = + or - 10.

Wait until they start cancelling vacation over the summer months due to not enough crews... Work to FAR and verify you're sick. Got us right where they want us, we lost the war.
