Default Waive to zero

Is this how to get two day back to back trips? We have to waive to zero to get trips assigned back to back? With 10 hrs off in base between trips.

I don’t want a three day trip with four days off and another two day trip.

i really want four days with 3 days off but since there are very few 4 day trips I imagine I have to get some combo of 3/1 2/2 or put up with 3/3 or 3/2

It’s 4 days off between work blocks not between trips. You don’t need to waive down to zero to get back to back trips.

i sent an email to pbs help but they still haven’t answered it yet a few days later. But this is what I needed to figure out the new bidding reality with less 4 day trips.

Realistically I won’t be able to do 3/1 or 3/2 because there probably aren’t enough 1 day and 2 day trips out there to pair with a 3 day by the time it gets to my seniority To make the pattern work.

so I’m really looking at least one week of 3/3 if I can’t get the 4 day trips to get the minimum 70 hours.

but gotta love those 32 hours in SLC next month.

Use DART instead of an email.

I knew a girl in college, her nickname was Dual Input, but for different reasons, clearly.
