I'm curious how this change interplays with SC coverage. Right now in the morning, second day trips are assigned, then by noon the next day SC are given out. If a person has a rotation assigned second day they basically become unavailable for SC the next day. If they move coverage to 1400, then all next day SC will already be assigned. That would seem to reduce the number of pilots they'd have available for second day trip assignments since every SC pilot will need 18 hours between assignments. The 6 hour SC window will help that a bit, but then they are also hurting themselves becuase a person with SC next day and a rotation second day is basically useless for their SC period, or if they are used they are going to have to drop the second day rotation most likely.

Where is this posted? I knew about the 737 test but haven't seen anything about it being expanded. Also, I thought the test was to start coverage around 2000 on the second day.

Got sick this week and tried to call out via MiCrew. Tried via both my phone and company iPad and got a “your request cannot be processed please contact crew scheduling.”
2nd sick call since the new contract and both have failed. As I understand it this is a pretty blatant contract violation. Anyone have any updates on when it’ll be fixed or consequences for the company for non-compliance?
I’m definitely getting a “the PWA is more like guidelines than actual rules” vibe
