Just looked at my schedule and saw I'm getting bought off for oe. When does crew scheduling have to notify me? Can't find it in the contract. Also can I put in a ws ahead of time and would it get awarded? Thanks!

Actually, what you're seeing is leftover fuel residue that has not yet evaporated immediately following a mid-air refueling (which is when this pic was taken).

You won't be able to WS/GS until the trip is removed from your line. It will show 23G5 on the days the trip was originally scheduled to operate and then if you pick something up it will show the new trip's details on the right side of your schedule.

Scoopdawg,
It appears you just called your own pilot group a tool, and an inefficient one at that ...

Many on here would disagree and think all y'all are very efficient tools.

To clarify (since this point confused me at first): you can put in the WS/GS whenever you like. You won't be awarded one until all the rules are met, including no conflict(s) with your current schedule. Once your trip shows the 23G5, as LeineLodge said, your schedule on those days is clear and you can be awarded a WS/GS over that trip.

I guess our management is not included in the above mentioned "many."

Does anyone have recommendations for a Debit/ATM card for international travel with low fees? I am thinking about opening a small account just for work. My credit card info got recently stolen in Chile, either at the hotel or the grocery store.

That's why we have JV partners man. Somebody's got to fly those widebodies. We have too much flying wealth on the Delta seniority list. Time to redistribute that wealth.
