It looks like the A321's are planned for delivery with one jumpseat only. It's worth a discussion with your CP.

Especially since the routes those 321s will be on are probably very commuter intense routes in and out of Florida to the hubs.

Correct, they are North South aircraft for the East coast.

I asked JG at a base meeting and he said 2. He could be misinformed.

Default PBS 30 hour rest

Anyone know the buffer for PBS awarding multiple trips in a row wrt 30 hours rest?

For example, will a 30:00 layover be accepted in the middle of 8 days of flying to allow two trips to be backed up to one another? Or does the administrator add in a buffer of some sort?

I've been all through the PBS gouge on Deltanet and can't find anything.

Reference to the source document would be awesome. Thanks

There will be 2 jumpseats on the 321.

Per 117, the 30 hour break can be anywhere, doesn't have to be at your domicile. We have 14 day trips in SEA

Thanks Dirt, I understand that part. What I'm wondering is if PBS imposes a buffer when awarding trips or is a 30 hour layover on the road sufficient to break them up. Ie does it need to be 30:30 (or similar) for PBS to consider it legal for line construction, or will 30:00 suffice?

Every rule is buffered by one hour in PBS. Presumably, this includes the 30-hour rest.

Thanks Alan. I'll send an email to the PBS committee to clarify and reply here when I hear back.
