just yellow tag it, take it down yourself, and you shouldn't be significantly delayed. i would definitely not allow them to check a deadhead bag through anywhere while in the middle of a rotation.

I thought that was no longer a option unless a DH crewmember in uniform.

The weight difference between the 26” and 24” is negligible.

And we have 5-day trips.

Out of base white slip
 
Is there some unwritten rule that says you should not out of base white slip since you are essentially white slipping a trip that would otherwise go out on a green slip?

I mentioned doing an out of base white slip to someone and he told me I would really **** off the pilots from that base. That surprised me.

What do others think?

Thanks

Just do what you want. Look at 88A’s...the green will start then folks start white slipping?? OOBWS no worse.

1) contract allows for it so fair game.

2) generally speaking if there are more guys on reserve than trips in OT for that day, then that trip was going to get assigned to a reserve guy for straight pay anyway, so no one in base missed out on a GS.

What policy is that? That 26" bags are not allowed to be carried on?

I've DH'ed quite a bit the last few years in 717ville -- never had an issue.

nobody has seemed to care as a NYC guy on reserve the last few months, several of us constantly flying uncovered DTW, MSP and ATL A320A spots. So Id agree...do your thing.

I've been told you can't have anything in the side pockets when you insert the bag into the storage space behind the CA's seat.
