It really could be pretty easy to set up a system that benefits both DL retirees who want to go to see the Mona Lisa, and the regional guys trying to get to work in DTW.

When it comes down to it, how many active 9E employees do you see on a standby list at a time? Doesn't seem like many to me. And since they have second flight positive space to work, it's probably a cost saving measure too.
I don't think it's too unreasonable personally.

Deviate DH question
I have a 2 day trip, with a morning DH ATL-PHX, 10:30 at the hotel, then fly the redeye back to ATL. Can I deviate from DH to take an earlier flight (still ATL-PHX), either that morning or even the night prior?
Not sure if Section 8.E.8.b would apply - "if the routing does not pass through the pilot's base" - because I'm not routing through the base, I'm just changing the flight times.
I'm not worried about the hotel in PHX, I'm paying for a hotel the night prior in ATL anyway so I would rather pay for one in PHX if I wasn't able to talk my way into the room early. Thanks for any suggestions.

So question is, when do we move to the next tier for vacation weeks? Say a guy was hired on Jan 1st, 2010, when does that pilot get the 4th week of vacation?
The chart says 12 years, so would that be Jan 2022, so then they bid for 4 weeks of vacation in Jan 2022, for the 2022-2023 vacation year. Do I have it right?
