I just find it more convenient to see a month view and look at how many days used and what kind of trips. The RSV avail is 'ok' but when someone gets a trip they are off the list and won't show up until their last day when they go back on long call. Unless I'm just an idiot and don't know what I'm looking at.

I’ve been around long enough to see other union brothers be convicted of rape, murder, incest, running ***** houses, etc. Advertising your schedule to people you don’t know is foolish. I also don’t leave a sign in my yard saying I’m out of town.

Schedules are already open in the PBS bid award which can be exported to adobe and control f’d by name or employee number. So why the up roar over opening up calendars real time? We have so many independent contractors it’s no wonder we don’t get the contract we deserve. We can’t even agree on simple things.
As for not getting the contract, the NC had a lot to do with that.

There is absolutely no reason for checking, or the desire to check another Pilot’s schedule. Unfortunately, some guys just can’t help themselves. I’ve had to defend at least a dozen Pilots, and Union volunteers, who have used access to another Pilots’s schedule for nefarious, and somewhat immoral purposes. 99% of the Pilots access each other’s schedules with no Ill intent. But the 1% who do have an axe to grind really screw the pooch and cause big problems .
Or to reflect other opinions in this thread: Mind your own damned business, worry about yourself and not others, find the information elsewhere in PBS, CCS and Crew Companion where it's available, and can we please stop picking the fly s--t out of the pepper and get back to gaining an industry leading contract.

As posted elsewhere, there are too many easier ways to see who got assigned to what trip.

Line pilots are the ones who detect contractual violations and alert the SSC and other committee members via PDRs. More transparency = better contractual enforcement.

To say nothing about all of the work that’s created for our (unpaid) ALPA volunteers who have to spend huge amounts of their time on Quixotic quests for the smoking gun at the heart of some delusional conspiracy wet dream.
(As a guy who’s had the privilege of supervising those unpaid ALPA volunteers in a past life I’d rather everyone’s schedules were blocked. It’s not worth the hassle.)
