UPGRADE QUESTION..

When are you considered to be based at your new domicile as a CA? I have an event in June that I'm currently using golden days for and I have to be there. Would I be able to use move days in place of those if they aren't available?

Vacay and golden days are deleted on day one of training. At some point you'll be allowed to bid for them in the new position, not sure if that's after IOE (probably).

Move days I think are "mutually agreeable" which means "at the convenience of CS".

If the timing works, you might try to get IOE scheduled around the event. Since IOE is not really seniority driven, that girl can be flexible.

Once you're awarded an upgrade if you put in for vacation and gold days you are put into the captain list. I start class next month, put in for gold and vacation days for May after the award, and was put on the captain wait list.

What do you want to know? It’s still a base.

I would put absolutely zero hope of anything substantial coming from negotiations. And it’s really not negotiations, it’s more like SAPA and the training department tell the pilot group how this industry leading 1% is the best!!!!

That’s all fine and dandy until they can’t staff the airline.
