I've been trying to use the 93% lean beef so I can eat more nachos.

Anyone know if the zero-line option will stick around post-covid? Seems like a good deal for the company and pilots that want more flexibility.

I doubt it. I'm the "good times" most categories couldn't even drop a 4 day most months because of "no coverage." A zero line would be like allowing pilots to drop to zero... Remember, the company implemented the 50 hour floor. They would want us to negotiate for that flexibility I'm sure. But right now, it works to their advantage.

FWIW, the 50 hour floor was rescinded long before COVID hit the scene. See the 2 NOV 2018 MEC update.

Regretting my empty line this month. Have trades in for any/all trips. Nothing so far.

I'm aware. Just an example of the company's motives. They created the floor for a reason back then.

That could be me next month. Rather roll the dice than get pushed back to reserve.
What BES and % are you?
