Whatever trip you are talking about also pays more than 12ish. If it sits for more than 29 hours it triggers the rig under the old C'02. It will pay in reality 16 and change. Look at Guar Time and add to block time. It should equal the actual pay time.

You are wrong. It starts it March. But why should facts get in the way?

Must have confused that one with the dozen things we have to wait 9 months for. I don't have the LOA with me.

Did I miss it? Has anyone seen the schedule for when the snapshots are going to occur? Its usually in the bulletin or is it in the E-docs? I didn't find it in either spot. Just curious.

Yeah, I know. I too am a dork curious about how this might impact future hiring.

Not sure how you are interpreting the bid, but there are no displacements out of CLE. Displacements would show as a (XX) on the bid. CLE shows "-" in both seats meaning no increase and no decrease in pilots staffed there.

In theory, CLE could still have vacancies if enough people currently in CLE bid to a different BES. However, more than likely, the base is being shrunk via attrition.

My completely guess is these vacancies reflect the slow integration of the L-UAL 75/76 domiciles in NYC and IAH?

"The expectation is that all United pilots would compete for those vacancies for which training and advancement has not been scheduled, based upon their new seniority."

Of course the capt numbers don't match so maybe it is a bad theory...
