Does anyone know a quick way to check the percentage of red eyes in a category without physically counting each trip?

Looking to switch from 1960s cramped 73 to the ergonomic little bus.

thanks

Reroute pay on the first day is 150% and 200% for any days after that.

150% or 200% of what? Block flown? ADG? something else?
So based on my timecard it looks like 150% of block flown ... to recap, our reroute was on day 1 and we were assigned to fly a MX verification flight (1.30ish block) instead of a 4 hour sit. I'm a reserve pilot this month. My timecard now has an additional line that says "RRPY" with SKED TIME = 0.43 and PAY TIME = 0.43.

Is a cancelled leg considered a reroute?

Prior to sign in for a 2 day reserve rotation, leg 1 and 2 of the trip was cancelled and I was assigned to fly a single leg to a different layover than the original rotation. The next day we flew back to domicile and then the rest of the rotation was flown as originally scheduled. Is this considered a re-route? The original rotation (e.g. XXXX-1) has "Rotation NOOP" at the top ... (XXXX-2) has "Rotation OPER" at the top.

Thanks.

100% yes. 23.L.4 RRPY is based on the legs not on your original rotation.

The Rotation Construction Dashboard on DeltaNet has a monthly document with this info and John Bell distills bid packet info by category on his website.

Anyone taken VS to the UK? Specifically, will they upgrade you if the sears are open?

The Sears by me closed a while ago, but I don’t think Virgin pays attention to that.

Yes they will, but you're bottom priority.
