Probation is for 12 months. For buddy passes you have to wait two years before you can set someone. BE aware that they take taxes and additional charges from your check until you have 5 years in the company.

2 years to set friends and other people for your D3 passes, and they will be in your list for 12months.

AA/AE has a slight different buddy pass system than some others, your limited to how many people you can list as "D3" which is the code for buddy passes, and you can only edit it once per year. Like most other airlines you also only get so many one way legs per year. You are not eligible for D3 enrollment till 24 months of employment.

That's why it's not a buddy pass. Read the Trip Book.

From: 1st year pay for the 3rd time
Default Relief Line

Do they build the line before the open time window? In other words can I partake in the TTOT opening do I have to wait for the automated TTOT window to close?

Don't they recommend that for while on Reserve, not Probation?

The TTOT window opened today and will close tomorrow, then they will build the relief line then OT window and finally then TTOT is opened and will stay open for the remainder of the month (SEP). Didn't we just cover this topic?

Thanks for the reply. Not sure if when you covered this topic. Didn't mean to burden anyone with a repeat reply.
