139. International pay” means an hourly pay premium paid to a pilot for flight time flown in an international operation.

137. “International operation” means a flight segment to or from an airport, or between airports, located outside the contiguous 48 states of the United States. Exception: A flight segment between an airport located in the Mainland United States and either Canada or Alaska will not be considered an international operation

Flew to Mexico in three rotations last month and the international pay is on my time card

How about food?
Not on the beach but very close, easy walk to beach (relatively safe-lots of tourists/families walking around)...food choices decent...I took my wife on long layo and had great time....google the hotel, lots of info

I'd look at your PAS again. There's a column for each rotation that has either "D" for Domestic or "I" for International. My PAS has always had international block and per diem separate from all my domestic flying.

If yours isn't showing as such, I'd contact ALPA because you're getting the shaft.

No **** sherlock. What may look close on a map might not be accessible, or safe.

If you call in well on your last day of a trip, what happens if you GS or get a inverse assignment. Do use credit for sick bank.

They calculate how much time/credit was remaining on your trip from the point you called in well. Any time flown on an overlapping GS will first be applied to you sick bank, up to the amount of time remaining on your original trip after you called in well. The rest of the trip's pay is paid like a normal GS.

I have a bunch of 4 day trips coming up, all of which are garbage. I noticed that scheduling typically takes similar crappy 4 day trips in open time and breaks them into nice manageable 2 day trips before assigning them to reserves. Is there a window of time where I could capitalize on this and swap with the pot and trade those nice 2 day trips with my garbage 4 day trip? I know if I was WSing I'd get priority on those trips, but my guess is with the way PCS swap with the pot works, they break them up between runs and I'd likely never got an opportunity to swap since they fill them with reserves before the 12pm PCS run.

Is my thought on this correct or is there a way to break into these nice and convenient 2 dayers?

So....any tips for ATL paid airport parking? On the off chance that the free lot/bus finally takes my sanity? I know there is something by the convention center some guys use, think it was a hotel.
