CRS - Complete Joke
 

CRS is an absolute joke when it comes to processing open time, trades, make-up, etc.

Real time trip trading is completely possible ... ALPA? Anyone? Crickets ....

Where is the accountability?
Can CRS just do their job or is it too much to ask.

Completely UNSAT time and time again.

You get what 57% voted for, before you know it's 2020 and you'll get another shot at it. 😏

It's always been that way. Over the years we've had numerous opportunities to fix this when Management needed our help and cooperation.

It doesn't seem like the computer programming would cost very much and it would give us more control over our lives.

I wonder what we'll have to give up to fix this annoyance?


:eek:

During our contract negotiations, didn't the union take it off the table because they didn't want to lose priority makeup? We did that to ourselves, apparently, against the wishes of most of the pilots.

You are absolutely correct busdriver12. If I remember clearly, it was straight from the mouth of the NC Chair himself, in one of the videos. That was after the 'overwhelming' majority of pilots polled years ago wanted real time trip trading as a top priority during negotiations.

And an overwhelming majority of pilots want the option to use OTP after declining SUB, which real time trading would eliminate

The obvious step would be to do away with substitution. Even the regional pilots get paid and go home if the company cancels flights, changes gauge, etc.

That would allow real time trip trading.

However doing away with substitution would take a lot more negotiating horsepower and/or the will to use it.

Seems like priority makeup could just pay 125%, forget the priority trading part, and get real time trip trading. I'd bet 99% of people outside of the wolf pack would vote for that.

Exactly.

OTP - open time PREMIUM.
125%. Pick your trip. Time stamp is your only adversary.
No expiration date.

PFS: Pretty Freakin' Simple.

Current book OTP IS DELETED.
CRS system upgrade is easier.
An 8th grader could do it for cheap.

Buy then we'd have to worry about 10 wolf pack members suing ALPA. Maybe that's already in progress?
