Looking at today’s MOU, I’d say the company F’d themselves by yanking the rug out from under VIL and reserve bidder in May.

IDK, I bid VIL for June *because* of what happened for May.

Full disclosure, I have a 2.5 hour drive to work and it's worth saving a month of day-trip drives and/or hotels.

I bid VIL for June because I’d rather spend the month drinking on the lake than worrying about work.

Not sure how they F'd them self. All day trips lines suck if you dont live close and SCR sucks if you dont live in base. I see it helping LCR since i can be anywhere in the USA or in the Caribbean this summer and get to showtime by 24hrs. I would only need one flight that gets in before show or commuter clause it since i have a lot of sick time. I live 1.5hrs from base and not sure if i want to drive 3hrs everyday for a line. VIL will be picked up by commuters, if LRC is not possible, or people that dont need to work since landings are not an issue anymore. July could be a huge X/Y list month if people fly on our cheap tickets tho

Did anyone understand the rationale of not assigning the new MAY trips to TAJ / drop into open time?
I fully agree with all the protest regarding BOTS.
Same single digit CA in every base, fly all the trips in May.
Some even out of domicile!
I expect the same is true for FO. (don't know how to access FO pairings on flica)
Do we need to form a reserve committee? :D
RES QOL was the worse loss in last CBA Sect 25. concessions!

I meant that I suspect they didn’t get enough takers for June, because of the nonsense in May

You think this is bad? Just wait for the union communication about concessions. Get ready to have the old contract pay rates shoved down our throats.

Im bidding VIL and expecting 10ish hours extra for currency. Pretty good deal.
