I asked why the opposition to pref bidding... he talked about improving his line by swapping...which is NOT affected by pref bid. Again your reading comprehension has failed you..

You clearly don't understand the difference between our line bidding with the accompanying pool display, ILIW, SLIW and the rest of our scheduling work rules, as it differs to PBS, and specifically what ASA has. It is all intertwined in how our current system compares to what others have in the form of PBS and accompanying rules.

I can hold 16-19 days off with at least75 hrs of credit under PBS...if I wanted to.

This is my first month in phase 1 in IAH. My awarded line was awful, obviously, and I was able to get 0 trades/drops despite the fact that I submitted my requests within nanoseconds of the window opening. I don't get the love for line bidding and the ILIW, my last 3 months in phase 2 I was getting between 13-15 days off and the exact days I needed while being in the back half of the relief line list. Ill be opting out from here on out.

A member from another forum said that Anderson is on record saying he literally hates XJT and would like to see the company default so they can cancel the dci contracts and folks at the GO thinks that Anderson has asked the ground crew to delay flights by finding damage.

Anyone heard of something similar?

Not sure XJT needs any help in the area of delayed/cancelled flights. This is stupid.

I agree it is stupid and doesn't make any sense except that if Delta wants to do something to a DCI carrier, history has proven that they can.
