Another Vacation Question
I've never tried to move vacation (other than a slide) and want to move a week of vacation from Oct to Sep. I put in a vacation move up bid specifying the move to a particular week. Is that the only way to accomplish that and when would the bid be processed? It was tertiary vacation award if that makes a difference. Thanks.

I think it's just the fact that Boeing appears to be trying to force the Max into the 757's role. A stretched 737 with 230 passengers sounds like too many people in too little airplane to me. And I even kind of like the 737.

What's the difference in size between the 73 and 75 tubes? The way ppl fawn incessantly over the 75 implies its a comfortable giant to ride in but as a pax they suck every bit as bad. Ever land in the back of a -300 and have to wait to deplane? Makes a -900 look like a private jet. No one cares about time to climb except us.

We simply have to defend the pilots in question on this type of nonsense. Retroactive digital footprints that fail to prove an affirmative defense after the fact is simply an indefensible way to go after anyone, even if they probably deserve it.
Process matters, and its simply asinine to discipline someone because they lack a provable affirmative defense. We cannot tolerate that, not now not ever. If someone is a punk (thief, dirt bag, low life, etc) and they acknowledge SC knowing there is zero chance they can make it, I have little sympathy for them and think they should be punished. But this is not the way.
Make a (fair and reasonable, but appropriate) example out of those special few who walked that tightrope without a net and fell. But a "you couldn't retroactively prove you commuted in the past therefore you're fired" is an attack so heinous and unreasonable that if we didn't defend it, we'd be coughing up some serious DRF dues in those guy's future suits against the association.
This is so clear and obvious and egregious even the least competent, over worked, mentally checked out, bow tie wearing, pony tail public defender would be all over it. ALPA has to be too, because they can not be allowed to go after anyone, for anything, in this fashion.

Never ever lie to management, you lose all job protections.
