Oops, you are absolutely correct. Thanks for the correction. It’s been a long day 😉

Res GS question

If I drop two reserve days in a month then fly a GS later in the month, is there any downside other than losing guarantee for the two RES days dropped?

No, you still still get the GS paid as single pay above your new, adjusted RES guarantee.

If you start a 3 day GS the day before you start a reserve block do you only get single pay above garuntee for the first day of the GS since the next two days were reserve days? Do you also just get 1 PB day since you only flew on 1 X-day?

How long before Payback Days appear on your timecard on RES? I'm in the middle of a GS now and I see no change to the total PB days.

Should be almost instant....if not within 30 minutes or so, they probably forgot

In my experience last year, I had to call and get them added > 70% of the time (not made up stat). If it's not on now, it likely won't show up with a call.
