Does that mean we start getting captain pay on the 14th?
Another question, probably dumb, does that include captain pay for OT? For captain pay, it is immediately upon being awarded a Captain status, which occurs when the Final Bid award is released. For OT flown on or after your award date, yes CA pay rates apply. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

If your an FO with some seniority, while awaiting on your CA training class date. Enjoy your seniority, choice of OT pickings, days off, and overall QOL. If displaced, you can really make a killing with OT pay, until upgrade, enjoy the holidays coming on CA pay. |

There are FOs displaced in the July vacancy and won’t start LT till mid Nov, they’ve enjoyed a sweet ride each month on RSV + picking up OT. As said before it’s the best of times but can be worst of times. Everyone’s situation is different. Living in base, this will be an ideal scenario to capitalize on[emoji383] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Of course, if you're senior to me, I recommend vacancy bidding. ;-) |

And this is why no one should be vacancy bidding to captain right now. Displaced are last into training which means a longer term as a senior FO on captain pay.
Of course, if you're senior to me, I recommend vacancy bidding. ;-) I’m going to try and optimize my schedule and pay until then. |

I agree, this is one more reason to just have a displacement list. No preference or proffer. Since we start getting paid now with the award, no reason to try to get to training sooner, unless you just really want to start logging the PIC time. But that will get you to the bottom of the reserve list sooner as well.
I’m going to try and optimize my schedule and pay until then. Well... I guess it gets you some. Probably not in a resume building kind of way though. I would be VERY happy if I could get displaced to the captain position of my choice and hit the line JUST senior enough to hold a line. I don't have the time to upgrade on this bid but will when they run the next one. Hopefully they'll still be displacing every qualified FO then. |
Prelim vacancy bid is out!
