Default PTO question

Question regarding the line improvement windows.

If we remove a trip using PTO ( let's say a day trip) to maintain above 70 hrs credit, can I then pick up a trip on the same day or different day and get that PTO back? Does Flica handle it automatically or does it involve a crew services call?

If you pick up a trip that touches the footprint of the original trip you'll get your PTO back. Flica will do it automatically.

Good to know. And if it doesn't touch? Any idea if a phone call can undo that?

I would try the comment section of rainmaker first. If that doesn't work, then a phone call.

If it doesn't touch, your schedule will show PTO for the hours of the original pairing and then the trip you have just picked up. I doubt you can get your PTO back but it wouldn't hurt to ask to switch it to UTO. The only way I know to get it back is to pick up something in the footprint.

You can pick something up over the footprint and it will give all your PTO back from the original drop not just the day your picking up over. If that then brings you below 70 hours credit the trade will be denied. Don't bother calling to get it switched to UTO they will say no. Just add a VDA on top of the PTO and you'll get it back that way. Again you cannot go below 70 credit. Only way to do that is UTS.
