Was there ever any resolution to scheduling giving out RR to Long Call guys. They have assigned me one for 3 days from now. Changed my LC to RR.
I find it hard to believe that they have already gone through the daily rundown for 3 days from now and that the most junior folks on the list weren't available.

Like Paok said, it shouldn't be a problem. I called the Pass Bureau this morning and was told that "Companions" have unlimited travel, both domestic and "Trans-Oceanic". Where as, we the employees get only 18 flights overseas.

Your travel companion has "unlimited" because he/she pays yield fare no matter what..but can go as many times as they please.

This could change things. It's only fair though. That's the way the contract was written.

On a side note....the line holders that ratified the current pilot contract with some of the worst reserve work rules in the industry are now being governed by said work rules. I guess sometimes there is justice.

I don't see how running the bids the way the contract states will change the end result, but at least it is being done the correct way.
