Especially when your first leg is a late DH JFK BOS. But when your self to BOS is still not addressed 18 hours later, and you can’t get to JFK because the flights to NYC cancelled, but you could have gotten to BOS but now it’s too late, you just take the OOP and let the company figure it out. Trying to be, “understanding” but there are logistical issues effecting commuters. One of them being an unwillingness to spend more time than necessary in NYC.

Oh I absolutely agree, and I truly do feel for those who are commuters. That is a hell I wouldn't wish on my enemies even in a normal airline schedule environment.

they get used first. Go look at the rsv availability in flics. Lcr are used the most. Especially with broken pairings.

More often than not its the SCR’s who get called for the broken pairings. Normally they get picked up by lineholders, but a good portion of the broken pairings get built under the 3.5 hour mark, so it goes to a SCR.

No, I think he's talking about our crew room

I bid it one month for fun and was used all the freaking time on broken pairings. Was just my experience. I actually broke the 75 hours and tried to get released but they decided it was worth more to them to pay me above guaranteed.

Apr - this fall is a different animal. There is NO open time. Zero. I think LCR will barely get used at all through most of the rest of this year until this turns around. If there are last minute crew necessities, it'll be SCR that gets used. If you want to fly less, I think LCR is the way to go for a while.

I can’t believe I’m actually looking at AA to DCA, Uber to Union Station, and Amtrak to NYC. WTF is wrong with me? All for a 4 day that now consists of 2 working legs equaling 1:50 total, 4 DHs, 2 limos, and a mid pairing NYC overnight in Flushing. Only to end around 4p after which all flights out will likely be cancelled. How much of this bottle of Cuban duty free Rum have I consumed? Oh man, that’s a LOT.
