The link is:
Myidtravel.com/myidlisting

You will have to get the secure info from the deltanet or Alpa site (or a delta buddy that commutes)
Pretty sure the OAL link within Travelnet takes you where you need to be.

No, the one in travelnet is not for jumpseating. You need the generic login page.

Looking at the Feb bidpack I noticed my category RLL limit is the same as the number of pilots in the category. But we get an extra x day for reserves over 20%. Just glancing at some other categories it looks similar.

Usually the RLL is a good estimate of the number of line holders and is 10-20% less than the number of pilots in category.

I’m pretty junior and have never been able to bid an RLL before. Does this mean every pilot in category can now select RLL as an option.

Did something change? Are they calculating this different somehow or has there been a change of policy?

Go to the crew resources page on deltanet and look at the estimated PBS line count for February. That should give a pretty accurate estimate of how many lines will be in your category. In my category there are an estimated 233 lines but the RLL is 268 and covers the entire category. I guess they are assuming people will bid RES and even the plug can bid RLL and get a reduced line if he/she desires.

I notice that the list in PBS says the RLL numbers have been updated, does it show 268 still in PBS?

Good catch, PBS updated the RLL to equal the estimated PBS line count.

Just saw that the RLL went way down. Must have been a FU on somebody’s part. Another month of Reserve I guess.😕
