Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
Maybe there is a computer/pcs problem. I tried to do a swap with pot...4 day for 4day over the exact same dates. Denied after 2pcs runs for " does not meet contractual time limits " two schedulers and one supv. Couldn't figure it out. Oh and it was 3days in advance.
The more I think about it, with the size and diversity of the fleet we have, a WB/NB payscale makes more sense. I couldn't really sell the longevity idea.. so this is the next best thing... Then we work on a way to maximize those W2s without having to sacrifice that QOL..
I knew you would come around.
Oh I still like the idea of LGBP, but it would never pass. This is the next best thing. See?! I can be reasonable. But only 2 categories... WB.. NB.. no super duper premium nonsense unless we get about 50 of 'em.. then it might make some sense.
I like the idea at first glance, but it would inevitably lead to people flying when they should have called in sick.

However, two main points:
The company will argue that the sick time is an insurance policy and not something you can turn into cash.
The company has never gone for being able to keep sick time then sell it back prior to retirement.
But, as I said, I like the idea. I've always liked the idea of taking some (or all) of your sick bank and either selling it for cash or time (terminal leave) prior to retirement.
