Did you put it in your survey? Tell your rep?

SW as well from what I’ve heard. The more time I spend here the more I hope to see some serious changes to our work rules.

Because then in many categories you'd never be able to drop a trip again because there would be pilots dropping trips just to get premium ones. I would support a step below all current GS steps, including OOBGSWC that would disregard GS triggers, but otherwise I see too much of a cost for pilots who just want to have more time off.

it's a huge gamble, you could drop your entire schedule and not get anything premium...if a pilot is willing to risk that i don't see why we wouldn't let them. Seems to me the GS Trigger was a big concession whenever it was implemented since it appears to be industry standard to not have a trigger.

i've been told that not many people have said anything about it.

Disagree. It should go before GSWC.

Delta didn't hire you to gamble, they hired you to fly.

Burn? I can't tell.

Well what should we care more about as a union - a Pilot willing to risk making less to potentially make a lot more or a Pilot who is trying to improve his schedule by dropping a few days?

To me this is a slam dunk - lets make it easier to improve our schedules. I love picking up a GS now and then but no one should depend on GS's .

I have always said GS's are the like "the force" - there is a dark side. In my humble opinion we should prioritize on the average line Pilot that works 75-85 hours a month.

Scoop

I would second that, focus on helping the majority, not the few people here ready to try a gimmick.

Personally I just want a 5:15 min day or something close. It sounds like everyone likes their average min day because the company doesn't get penalized for a 24 hour overnight for the crew. Personally I'd rather 24 more hours at home with the same pay. It doesn't sound like anyone is interested.

I hope you're right and I was planning on 6B+ this year and over 16%. We shall see. I'm sure the massive amount of greenslips that went out this summer will put a dent in it, and they probably could have prevented thousands of them by hiring a few hundred more pilots, but what do I know? I just work here.
