Thanks Scoop

You can do that or you can go ahead and WS a trip now if something you like is sitting there. PBS will view the carry-in trip as days of work just as if you had bid them to be LC days.

That's what I thought.

Thanks Scoop

Also, I believe if you WS into your x days in January, that is just credit toward guarantee and no pb days.

That is 100% correct.

If you do that, PWA 23.S.15 allows you to move the X days underneath the WS trip onto your next set of LC days.

Wow, I didn't know this.. that could come in pretty useful sometimes.

True, but only if you actually fly the trip. If you swap out of it, or call in sick, CS will tell you to pound sand.

Yeah, that sounds tiring. As sailingfun asked, how much over 30 hrs is it? If it's close...

RSV question. On the YS page there are two questions,

"Reduce raw bucket y/n"

"Reduce days of availability grouping y/n"

I read the iCrew Basic Users Guide and it has an explanation but I still don't understand what those actually mean. I am trying to fly as much as possible and get to Full if that changes anything.
