Scoop, Hrkdrivr, Roadkill: Thanks for the follow-up / info. That's essentially what I'd thought, having scoured the PBS Gouge and anything else I can find on the subject--which is why I can't understand why I regularly read (on multiple threads on this site) about how "PBS violates seniority".... Thanks for the explanantions!

Do you know what else is quaint? Sending your training letter in the U.S. mail! I have to be at training next week and there's no letter, it's probably lost, or mixed up over the Thanksgiving holiday, and I have to leave town tomorrow. So far, I've managed to pull up the sim schedule, read the FOM training section, and booked my flights, but I have no idea what hotel I'm staying at because it's so super secret that it's not on Icrew, but I'll bet it's in the letter!

What's funny (to me at least) is we still use vernacular from when Crew Scheduling was in the pilot lounge and used color coded slips of paper to assign rotations.
Today a Green Slip is still a Green Slip. Does anyone remember when they used to do it that way?
Challenge: If anyone can find a picture of a Green, Yellow or White slip and post it I will give you this new car as soon as one of my fetching associates gets it washed.

Anyone care to post a rundown of the South America/Latin America destinations (your favorites/ones you hate and why)?
I'm new to the ATL7ER and I'm trying to sort out the good/bad/ugly.
For a reference, a good trip to me would be: commutable (all SA is although red-eyes are ugly), clean hotel, a good workout facility (weights), and easy access to a grocery store or healthy food around the hotel. I don't really care about touristy stuff.
I get on the crew guide but the info is spotty and some of it dated.
Thanks!
