that's my mantra as well but the only thing our senority is good for is days of the week off, not total days off a month, and overnights.
As for the company to be able to Jack around your schedule at will senority is worthless after 80% in base not including vacation. That's a completely different argument.
I like spirits rule that you cannot get re routed unless you agree. Of course pay me way more as well.

It's a real problem... for us. They don't see it that way. As with most things around here it's "well you got paid premium for it didn't you?"

Money can't fix broken promises.
Especially when you end up working significantly more than you bid for, and get paid the same.

Bonus points for the ridiculous, fatigue inducing (negating the PP) circadian shifts.

Oh, and even more points for JA's into your day "off", that aren't, and end up paying 6.5 for working your day "off" at "double time". I've lost count of the number of those I got last year.

I thought all you have to do on your day off was not answer the phone.

That works great when you're at home. Not so great when you're trapped in the vortex and they (purposely, IMHO) route you into an unscheduled layover on your last day of work, with no way to get back to domicile until the next day.

A rescheduled Pilot must be rescheduled to return to his domicile
(RTD) no later than the End of the Original Trip Hour
Period (EOTHP) +4 hours. Flying may not be added to the
end of a scheduled or rescheduled trip that would result in
the pilot returning to domicile following the EOTHP. (Prevent
assignment of open time via reschedule, e.g. no turns
added on last day unless the turn was part of the original
reassignment.)

NVM into the next day, how is it possible that that an airline as old as I am does not have that, but NK does?

Edit: and I have had to call out because my SO got hosed, luckily our contract allows for that too.

Don’t forget the option of putting your next-day JA trip into giveaway. It’s helped me out a couple of times now.

Apparently, nobody is willing to work for "double time" that pays 6.5.

It’s Ski season. I’ll catch up with y’all next month. Maybe…

Just an FYI for you all - if you're working this weekend and don't want additional flying, get a GDO on your board. The operation looks like it could get a little crazy!
