There are a TON of reasons they can deny RR pay. I've had them take it away for a mechanical and WX. If it is out of the companies control then they will deny it. It will show until they close the rotation. When there is RR pay it actually goes to a supervisor who reviews it before they close it and that is when it will disappear.

I know that mx and wx are not reasons for RR pay. However, if the company jams you into a reroute into a day off without exhausting other options, would that be considered "out of the company's control?"

Just wondering if we are able to hold the company accountable for taking the path of least resistance when other options were available.

BTW - all of this applies to the 10 hour notice requirement only. ALL other 117 limitations still apply.

Thanks for the answers.

I got one of those once and I was not happy until I saw how much extra pay it was......then it was OK. I got like 14 hours extra pay and was home by noon the next day.

That's a fact, Jack!

Unfortunately, my 20yr. old son's penis appears to be ingrown, right between his ears!

With my three daughters, I worry about all the other -dick for brains- boys out there!

I'm glad I was never like that when I was young!

Here's what I've been telling my three girls since they were about 13:

Remember, all men are lying PIGS! Stay away from them! They only want ONE THING!!

Question for the GS guru's here. If you get a GS with less than 12 hours to report (on reserve) which is coded as an F, does that mean that I'm still in line for G#1 for the month or does the F#1 count as my first GS? Both GS's, but different codes. I know an out of base GS doesn't count towards your normal GS # for the month.

The word "penis" has appeared a far too many times.
That is all.

Makes me wonder -who- let the SEA Exception into the contract in the first place?

And why?

And maybe it should be removed now, while we are in 117 Negotiations?

Was SEA a hub under the NWA CBA? Obviously it was a pilot domicile, but was it considered a hub in the terms of the contract prior to the merger?
