It’s flawed logic. In base - no impact. Commuters - big impact. So say you commute and since most bid CML (an assumption) then the most Jr will be the only ones used. One can compare available info and determine where they fall on the likelihood of a call and see if they should bother to come in. If you bid CMF then you’ll need to come in regardless. The logic is flawed because even if you have to buy a hotel EVERY DAY you still make more money with min credit than you do with a 20 hour VLOA even factoring in hotels and food.
The only thing this buys the company is ill will from the pilots. Nice play.

Yep, but a hell of a lot better quality of life, minus the food cost, no commuting. Boredom in hotel, waiting for shuttle, ...
Just drive a couple of days for Uber, and you'll be likely ahead of the game.
Fortunately, my seniority gets me an easy commutable schedule.

I really wish he hadn’t have said that. Not that we don’t need the optimism but June shows just how fragile that relationship with AA is. I’ll believe it when the awards come out. Maybe we get back on bidding schedule.

still waiting on an actual explanation on the whole June debacle. July will be telling. Given that line holders for July only have like 55-60 hours, if we have a big increase in AA flying, that’s good news for the guys on reserve. I’m currently on a trip that was added to the schedule.

maybe in anticipation of added schedules? I don’t believe for a second these things are spur of the moment, as management often claims. There had to be some advance notice.
