Don't hold your breath
I've seen this happen at least a dozen times. 76 bid pack trip but scheduled on a 75, and the other crew calls in sick. 75 reserve is called, but his pairing shows as an extra with a different pairing #. He is paid 75 rates, and I'm paid 76. Told them all to grieve it, but the company feels if the pairing # isn't in the bid pack, then it isn't a 76 trip. Thus no WB pay for those guys.

You mean we didn't fix this in negotiations?

In case you haven't figured it out, if you are on the 757 MEM, you get screwed over and over. And we let it happen because it is in our contract. There's no plan to fix these zingers because the sentiment of this crew force is "I've paid my dues, so should you" ... "I spent 10 years on the panel" ... "but if we try to fix the 757 issues, we'll have to give up XYZ."
Best plan is to gain seniority and avoid the 757 unless you're happy with a particular city you can hold.

I don't believe the 76 LOA differentiates between classic and LDS.
