Default April SkyWest Line Awards

Okey doke folks...Just curious how it's worked out for everybody else - I've never seen a line like mine before. I fudged last months bid but fixed those bugs apparently. Anyway, I don't know if it's because I'm fairly junior in my new base or what, but I got three (yes three, albeit fantastic and well-paying trips) for a credit of 60 hours and 19 days off...

I'm sure they'll throw some Reserve in there - anybody know when I can expect to see that?

They usually will throw in reserve or extra trips when they load our skds into etrip I believe. They will probably have to throw in something to get you up to the monthly guarantee? But who knows.....you already have more reserve than they know what to do with! You need to have at least 62.5 hours which you can get by going over credit on the three trips you already have. Let us know what they stick you with.

You got the composite line...congrats. They will fill in the rest with reserve days to bring you up to 75.

I ended up with another month of reserve....I am thinking my SLC bid was a bad idea...( I commute from ABQ)

Yep - that's what I figured - kind of funny being that I spent only one month on reserve in my tenure here...and that was nearly a year ago LoL. But that's okay - I'll take it in stride and pick up a good paying three-day - that'll get me to 100 hours credit and still 12 or 13 days off...(if you don't count being on reserve these days a paid vacation haha)!

ANPBird - I'll let ya'll know what they throw on my schedule then in a few days...Anybody else with composite lines?

As expected, I got a reserve line.

How long you been with Skywest, Experimental? I've been here since September. (And I'm far from being a line holder in a very junior base.)

Whats up dude, how the spring treatin ya? No so good it looks. It was getting looking up and up for me here in FAT but not with April. PBS built 66 credit, and I suspect 3 reserve days with be put on here on the 24th.

On the plus side, i'v put in for two seperate vacation days this summer and they have been approved same day as the request. shout back.

Looks like we've lost lines all over the E120 system, except for the big bases perhaps. After the better part of a year being a line holder I'm back on reserve. Terrific.

Anyone have any idea what the jet classes look like? We need to make some room on the Tprop ladder and I know there are lots here that are waiting to make the move over to the jet.

Figure its time to get a part time job to keep me out of trouble for the 25 days that I will not be flying. Maybe at a golf course. Yea things are looking up.

ExAB if you see me at Lofte's you're buying!! i got 11 days off next month; 90 hrs credit. MKE-GRR-MKE-GRB-MKE-MKG-GRR 5:30 credit (about 9:00 duty) and one of those is a 15 min turn! Nothing rocks like a 17-hr 16-leg 4 day! I hope i get an old Comair bird with a jacked-up seat and no ACARS
