It took them three months for me for them to fix it. Called a few times and finally the CP office had enough begging HR to fix it and flexed some muscle. I got the money added onto one of the biweekly paychecks. It was annoying but I do feel like base leadership did all they could. I’d advise to pop in and ask them about it if you want to feel reassured.
Hoping every pilot catches every error every time just hands money to the company outside of the contract.

The SLC base meeting they did confirm there are talks about SLC350. They said now they’re discussing if
1) the 330 can do it in the summer
2) if the 350 is too big of an airplane to do those markets
3) the total network of the Europe on 330 or 350
pretty much said they want to evaluate how this summer goes on the 330
also said this AE won’t be a massively big AE. Want to get training spooled up while they plan for summer 2024.

We are understaffed. Reroutes and greenslips for the win. A fall memo saying sorry bout that, we will are having a cross divisional multi silo vertically and horizontally integrated meeting to correct this so it doesn’t happen again. (Using as many college -100/200 business school textbook references possible).
Then one year from now people will be saying: “this summer is gonna be insane. They really expect us to work overtime and put up with these reroutes like we did last summer because they can’t properly manage staffing.”
And it’ll be a rinse and repeat cycle. It’s literally the same thing every year.

It’ll go the same way every summer has gone during my ~decade here.

If so, yes, this summer and every summer (or high-demand period) would appear under-staffed, while the opposite (over-staffed) would also occur throughout the year. And it would never be a surprise, nor an indication of a failing of the system. It is, literally, the staffing system we work under.

Isn't this less about overall staffing, and more about 12-month rolling guarantees? Seems to me it's literally how the system works. Understaffed some parts of the year, overstaffed others, everything averages out.

If everything is understaffed all year, yea, that's broken.

It’s a question of degrees. Yes we are understaffed 8 months a year but we are REALLY understaffed 4 months per year. Hasn’t always been this way. Got Gummed up with the Optimizer.
