I usually bid Reserve in training or vacation months but with the shadow days I've heard guys bid max credit.

WSY?

Thanks.

Additionally, bidding max-credit will make PBS only get you into the top half of the LCW, not the MOST credit. You can set a bid that will push you to the highest credit possible(touching the shadow period). I would preference the highest combination of trip value you can in the shadow period.

So...big IROP, miss deadhead (block in after DH departs). Eventually, last day of trip gets removed from schedule. Time card shows almost 5 hour reduction in pay from original guarantee. Is this correct? If not, what's the recourse?

Fun day commuting to work, cancelations, everything late, and even mechanicals. Have positive space but not sure if that'll even help with the delays. Might get there eventually
