It’s FICA’s code for “immovable day off” for RSV pilots. Pretty much just a formality, I’ve never heard of days being moved around, but it’s in the contract that you get 8 “immovable days off” when on RSV. The other off days are movable under certain conditions. GDO is just telling you what your “immovable days off” are.

Well I hope you're just being cute with the terminology and don't actually believe there's no such language in the CBA. True, "GDO" does not appear in the CBA; it's a term that got its designation from who-knows-where in CrewTrac. The interchangeable term used (and accepted by the company and ALPA) is "immovable day off", which is defined in 25.B.3.4. And there absolutely is such a thing.

So you were given the benefit the doubt, led specifically to the language that has the equivalent of a "GDO" clearly defined, and you still insist it doesn't exist? Are you high?

Scheduling absolutely has moved reserve days around, they know what they are and how to move them, and have been found in violation of the contract when they've done so contrary to the language, eventually paying up in the form of NCC and/or grievance settlements in the process. Don't give up language we have because you assume it to be a "formality".

I'm not really sure what you expect anyone to say, being that you seem content where you are?
