Im flying all kinds of trips on the A-320 out of Denver. Many are complaining of the same, if you’ve got a EWR/LGA in your trip you can almost count on a CF from the crew desk. It doesn’t really matter if I am getting reassigned and you aren’t, it’s happening more often and the crew desk is starting to make it a habit. If they’re going to be using reassignments as quick fix they need to be paying us handsomely for it. I’m not sure why you wouldn’t want that?

Because it doesn't affect him and he thinks you are stealing a portion of his negotiating pie that is ALL HIS, HIS, HIS! If you didn't want to be abused you shouldn't have bid NB captain.

Or something like that.(sarc)

BTW, if it rarely happens the "cost" to fix it would be minimal for the company and thus minor negotiating capital expenditure by the NC and fairly easy to get buy in from both sides.

How a contract affects the individual should be the way everyone considers it—it’s the only way to determine the real problems. If everyone’s input is based on a perceived problem, you’ll never know what the real ones are.

I’ve never gotten a refund from DALPA for what it’s worth. I have gotten a bill that I didn’t pay enough at the end of the year.

Last one was in 2021. $5 million was refunded to the pilot group. It has happened periodically since I've been here.

I didn’t say that I wouldn’t like our reassignment rules to be better. I said that the “everyone is constantly reassigned” is an exaggeration. I’m on the bus (EWR) as well. I bid high credit day-only flying that finishes early in the afternoon as do the people I fly with. Other than the occasional weather event that causes delays or having to wait for a gate because we’re running ahead, seems to run pretty close to schedule.

It’s amazing how much time you spend on these forums trying to save face for United’s sub par work rules. The minute I see your name I already know it’s just another post defending the company. Even on subject’s that have nothing to do with negotiations you subconsciously defend management.

Thankfully we don’t have many pip squeaks like you at DAL. There’s nothing wrong with being proud of the airline you work for. You’re not that guy, you’re just a kool-aid drinking management shill.
