I'm a Netjets guy who in solidarity applauds your efforts to get a fair ,equitable, and industry leading CBA,nobody has ever said this process is painless, but putting their( management ) feet to the fire is the only way to get results. The pilots have the power. Cheers out.

Can anyone shed light on payback day usage?
I have 2 payback days coming and I want to use them for a 4 day trip that starts Jul 30th. The way I read it, it'll pay me for the first two days of the trip, which is what I want since they're worth 14 or so hours.
Questions: 1 - Does there have to be positive staffing to use PB days? 2 - Are they processed on the 20th like the rest of July PCS or will they go as soon as I put them in? I don't see payback days on the list of PCS steps.
Thanks!

2. Go to PCS-Leave Requests-Payback Days and select the bid period at the top of the screen. July usage won't be available until the schedule is released to DBSM. Enter it as a request and it will be processed.

PB days are dropped via I-crew. They are in PCS:
Schedules>PCS>Leave Request>Payback Days
Automated process. Yes you need positive coverage for all days of any trip you are attempting to drop.
I don't think you can drop any July trips until the PCS runs for July start on the 20th.

Thanks. Doesn't look like good enough staffing. I'll try anyways I guess.
