Trip trades and premium credits are based on credit, at least that's sometimes an easy way to look at it. If you give up a high credit three day to pick up a garbage pile 4 day (and it's always been this way under this contract and its forebearer) then doom on you.

Wait and see. If that's the situation, then yeah, completely unrelated to LOA 67.

Recent Memo
Maybe it's me but was that recent memo about crew rooms a little off putting??? Threatening the very crews that fly in and out of places like NYC during snow/rain/Irops??? I didn't think it was really necessary. Never mind the crew room at LGA isn't the nicest in the world. You can sit in it for eight hours on RR just don't be in there at night!
Wear your hat, make your PAs, be on time, go fast, send your delay codes, but if we find you in the crew room at night you may be fired!
Probably me but the culture here, has it in fact changed?

Nobody is getting lectured for not wearing the hat or making gate PAs.
BUT - this latest memo about receiving yet another nuisance ACARS message is cringeworthy. I feel like I can barely even talk on the radio without CELL CALL blaring in the background with nuisance messages. My personal favorite is the message about how it’s D-10 and we should start the APU. Well, what if the APU is deferred? What ever shall we do? And when it isn’t, I am quite certain that it has already been started so the cabin isn’t 33C.

Endeavor must have upgraded to unlimited family plan with Delta!

My fav is making a PA and having "Selcal, Selcal" blaring in the background.
The ACARS messages are not only a nuisance but a distraction from our primary task of just flying the aircraft. It will stop when there is an incident or accident. The FAA should stop these things but maybe they don't know. This is in addition to the "Creative" way they are getting around the FARs with regards to scheduling and this latest missive about what constitutes flight time.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
