Run it through the rules auditor in the swap with the pot section and see if it comes up with any violations, if not call a scheduling supervisor and ask why you didn't get a call. You may not get paid for it as they will run through and see if anyone junior to you also didn't get a call (remember IA's go bottom up) the junior most person that got bypassed will get pay protected single pay.

Got ROBO call and put slip request in with conflict. Waited a bit to see if they would process on their own. No dice. Called them to inquire and was told they aren't doing "with conflict" yet.
It's still sitting in there. Presently 4 hours till sign in. Maybe I don't get the coverage ladder but if they don't have someone they wish to use (no conflict) wouldn't they still cover it with someone that can operate it on time...even if it's with conflict?
I agree with the previous post, maybe more behind the curtain that is yet to reveal itself, but I sure am learning a lot today!!
Loads and loads of open rotations in ATL and LAX 717B today and the last few days too.
I wouldn't wish that job on anyone.

Annnnnnd the winner is.
Yeah it went Noop for no crew. I thought if they had someone that could cover it they would cover it and deal with tomorrow...tomorrow. I misunderstood the coverage ladder as: "We'll cover all flights in this coverage order and only if unable to cover it would cancel."
As I said before, learning a lot today!

Reserve GS question. How is a PR calculated? If I return at 1900, when can I be hit up again (I have a payback day, next day is also a res...when can I get sent to work again)? I ask because what I got is not what I thought I would get.
Thanks
Thanks

I believe once scheduling gets within a certain time threshold they are allowed to do whatever they can to cover a trip, or so I've been told.

I think that depends on your category/flying. I think they do what they can to cover international flying. A lot of GSWC's went out last summer in NYC, and I could never for the life of me figure out why they always waited until the 11th hour to cover some of those trips.

Scheduling never makes a decision to cancel a flight. That is done way above their pay grade. Because a rotation was nooped does not usually mean the flight was canceled. If the flying became know less then 14 hours prior to report it can be returned to crew tracking for coverage. (Reroute)

For example, on a 1 day trip if you block in at 1400 you get a Pr worth 23:30. If you block in at 1431 you get a full PB day and a Pr worth 00:01.
In your example, you block in at 1900, add 30 minutes for debrief, so your effective Pr is 4:30. That means you can begin long call at 0430 instead of midnight of your next on-call day.
