FCFS Global Open Time is at 150%?
Same day Global Open time is VDA without the paper DH and 190%/200% premium pay.
Reality check.
1. Phone rings and then voicemail left with full details,
2. Watching open time and trip drops and no RSV coverage then the phone rings.
3. Sitting on a golf cart and CS provides full details and then told by pilot they will be at the airport in 5 hours ... dial tone!
4. Two days of VDA on schedule. Phone rings. Guess what? They are calling for a two-day VDA with a show time in about 3 hours. If it's 7:00 pm, it's a red eye! If it is 4:00 its an AM trip!
Details which were provided AFTER the company said they wouldn't provide details.
Some people are perpetually new here! It's really is just sad!
We lost out of base VDA and paper DH for the advertised improvement of Global Open time. Neato. Instead of a VDA to a local or someone that is out of base fishing we get straight time.
Super ...

You are miserable dude.... you have over 3K posts of misery and doom. I have 20 and i'm very happy here. I know how to make my $ and i'm pretty good at it. Maybe you should take your talents over to Delta. You seem like you would fit right in a double breasted jacket and hat and have an instant smile that pops out on your face

But if someone junior would rather pick up a trip out of base instead letting the senior guy get everything this will help. Sorry to all the super senior fll guys based in jfk but the gravy train is done. You can still vda but now you don’t get every opportunity. I don’t like a lot of the cba but global open time is a good thing. Doesn’t stop you from getting a vda
Hummm ...
FCFS Premium Open time window
FCFS RSA at Premium Plus
FCFS Global Open time at base
VDA last.
Interesting take on senior gets everything!

VDAs will be almost non-existant once Global/Premium open time kicks in.

GOT is at base, right?
I looked at it seems that it is and everyone else is saying 150% and that is worth the transparency!
Which basically already exists even thought Bluejet says it doesn't.

By the way, I'm not miserable, FAR from it.

Global will be open to in base guys first for an hour, then anyone in the system will have an opportunity to pick the trip up. My guess is if there's time, the company will let trips sit in open time for as long as they can to see how many jackballs will pick up straight pay trips. Then they'll turn it into premium which will allow them to pay less than VDAs. My guess is most of the time, trips in open time never get past the premium open time. VDAs go the way of the dinasaur.
