Hi Everyone,

Just wondering which base for new hires on the CRJ would get off reserve the quickest? Is there much overtime available? If you had no ties to any particular base, which would you choose and why? Thanks in advance

Go to Minneapolis. There is always something to pick up, a lot of people will wheel and deal on trip trades. You will have short reserve and when you upgrade you will know the area. You could also move to Detroit, cheaper housing and quick off reserve but it's smaller so there will be less to pick up.

Does anyone know what manual we find the codes used in skedplus? I got the code PEN4. I think I read on here a few months ago that is the code for the trip displacement? Also, if that is the displacement code the 72 hour mark has passed but my credit isn't the original? Do I have to call CS to give me back my credit for the displaced trip? Thanks

It is for displacement, the number is how many days of pending. They can assign something that falls within your original footprint up to 72 hours prior, at which point it should change to DIOE, displaced for ioe. The credit will not display properly until the pay period gets processed in my experience. The crew pay tab should show it correctly, but it's been kind of hit or miss for me.

You should get paid for the trip, even if it doesn't show right away.

The PEN4 "should" be changed to DIOE at 72 hours but sometimes they don't get around to it and sometimes they'll leave it as PEN and then try to assign something inside the 72 hour window in the hopes that you'll go along with it.

Here's what you do...at EXACTLY 72 hours prior to show time log on and take a screen shot showing the time and either DIOE or PEN4. Then don't log on or return their phone calls. As long as you have proof that nothing was assigned at the 72 hour point , you're off the hook. They may try to pretend you're obligated to self-notify inside 72 hours but just ignore them, even if they call at show time asking where you are. They know the rules, but will try to play you to their advantage if they think they can get away with it. Just keep that screen shot...CS will frequently lie when they screw up in order to shift the blame to a crewmember.

If you want to fly, fine. If you get DIOE status then you can pick up anything you want during that time frame and get paid for both what you picked up and ALSO the value of the original DIOE trip.
