The new contract allows double reroutes. Enjoy. :)

Denny,

I'm just a poolie looking in from the outside, but I'm trying to make sense of this math. Did this crew scheduling mistake turn into a 44 hr 5 day!? This has to be a golden ticket opportunity that rarely comes around. If not, sign me up!

Yeah, may take me a while to get there since we want to move to SEA. I read that as technically a 4 day as well. Huge difference from the regional world!

We often have 8 day trips where you can deviate deadhead on the front and back, fly it as a 6 day and get 46 hours pay plus positive space to and from work.

So did the old contract. There is actually no limit on reroutes then or now. The reroute section is much better in the new contract. I suspect perhaps you are confusing recovery obligations.

Y'all will get a kick out of this reroute story. Earlier this month I whiteslipped a trip. DH SEA-AMS and fly back. Nice little 3day worth about 20:15. Next morning I go to the lobby to get the crew bus and lo and behold...............I will be the third Captain on this leg! :eek: Mind you, I DH'd over to fly this leg. There was a LCA giving a TOE... So, being the conscientious dude I am, I call the duty pilot figuring, hey, I'm just gonna DH back! Cool! But no, the inbound FLT from SLC had canceled and I got rerouted to stay in AMS another day and fly relief Captain to Detroit, layover and DH home making it a 5 day trip now worth 26:55. The good part, I got an additional 16:52 reroute pay because the reroute got me home more than 30 hrs after my scheduled trip. (International rule for RR pay that becomes 25 hrs on July 2) I got to DTW and deviated DH and went home on the same day.

So if I get a GS that carries over to the following month how does it work if you are going from a reserve to a regular line?

I'm guessing that you get payback days and pay above guarantee for the block hrs flown in the reserve month. Do you then get double pay no credit for the block hrs and any trip credit for the line month too? Also does it count as GS#1 for the line holder month?
