Oh yeah, good luck talking to a human being at MS.

Are you former military scoop? Got an offer from ID.Me this week for a lifetime subscription to MS Office for 34.95.

30hrs would actually be very cool. Fresno is meh. Yosemite is amazing. It's about 4hrs driving round trip, so you'd need a full day. There's also options to Sequoia and Kings Canyon which are also fantastic and closer. Could be a unique layover experience vs typical downtown near the Rock Bottom/Irish Pub.

Does APD reset on the hire month or day?

If my APD resets in October and I use my APD in September to drop something in October will it us my expire APD or my incoming one?

Random questions I know, thanks.

Resets on day 1 of the bid period that your anniversary is in. So if your anniversary is Oct 29, it resets Oct 1

23. I. 10. b.

"10. An APD request will be granted if, at the time of processing, the: "

"pilot has not been granted an APD since the first day of the bid period containing the last anniversary of their date of hire..."


It's a good question. Seems to me, "at the time of processing" is the kicker. Does "time of processing" mean the PCS run that executed the drop, or does "time of processing" mean the time of trip that was actually dropped. Furthermore, if the APD was granted for an October trip (but time of processing is in September), and your anniversary is in October, does this mean you can no longer APD in your new year?

I'm not 100% sure, but I'm afraid it would burn your APD for your new year. But, if you had already used your APD this year, you could APD in October (with time of processing in October) even if it was before your actual anniversary date in October.

As soon as your schedule is published in iCrew, you have been granted your APD for your new year. If you APD on Sept 20th for a trip in Oct and your anniversary is in October any time, you are using next year's APD

Yep. I learned that one the hard way.
