Just wondering when people get their schedule at different regionals. For example, when will you get Octobers schedule? Do you already have it, 2 weeks prior, Sept 30th?
What about the next day's schedule or your next trip? And how often are you flying something that isn't what you are supposed to do?
Thanks

 

At ASA, we get 17 emails from Karin H spaced 15 seconds apart when the schedules are due about a rogue unicycle-riding clown possie that came into scheduling and shot water out of their ties and sprayed the only computer (a Commorore PET, built in 1974) and ruined the floppy disk drive, causing a catastrophic meltdown(leaving Brad and SR Charlie unable to save their progress on the Oregon Trail), all while a NYC bicycle courier sent by mainline dramatically smashes through schedulings window on a razor scooter to deliver "last minute flying" (to the same cities at the same times as the previous 15 months...go figure).

Then we get an email from ALPA about how angry they are at the inability to agree on a schedule so they send the company an angry email(the equivalent of a highschoolers love note, complete with poetry and a check box at the bottom asking them to check yes or no if they like them) and choose not to enforce a contractually negotiated deadline.


When that is all said and done, we have blown by the deadline.

Short answer, we get our schedules whenever it is most convenient for the company. In their defense they work really hard(insert sarcasm) and have a short time frame(insert sarcasm) of ONLY 7 days to complete a computer generated solution.

 

Compass bids on the 12-17th, generally get schedules 21st or 22nd.

 

What captain beefy said at 9L as well! Although we're SUPPOSED to get our awarded line numbers on the 16th. Then comes the initial award/schedule enhancement window/final award on the 24th-25th so you may not know exactly what your schedule will be until then.

 

Line holders at Eagle will know either on the 19th or 20th depending on the month.

 

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHA lol!!!!
Now that's funny!!

 

All Republic certs bid 12th-16th. All schedules for next month come out on the 19th at noon EST.

 

Line holders and reserve holders too. I think the only ones that know the schedule almost at the end of the month are the composite lines.

 

For the next bid (starts 9/26) we bid between 8/31 and 9/3. We'll know by the 8th or so.

 

9E is the 18th typically, up to the 20th at 1700ct by the contract.
