Last 2 months my schedule has popped up on iCrew just after the A's get posted. It's there for a few hours then disappears for a day.

I currently have a Pr on 1 July and a trip that signs in on 2 July (reserve to line holder). CS has already assigned me rest for the remainder of my Pr on the 1st. If I manage to get 1 more trip and turn 1 July into a full off day, can the company legally assign me rest on a PB day? I'm at rest by default aren't I?

I decided to press to test and bid a 2 July trip in the hope of getting some sort of conflict carry-out trip, but I'm wondering if the assigned rest would be an additional hurdle to overcome.

Days off are rest. XX , **, PB and PR.

If your block of days off doesn't add up to 30 hours they can extend your rest as necessary.

So they come out right before lunch in backdoor, officially after lunch on the same day.

If work is required over a weekend then they'll be done early. So if the 11th is Friday, then they'll start on Monday. If the 16th is Sunday, all bids out by Friday.

Tic but it sure seems to be the way it's done and given how much is done via pen and paper, like GSs, I wouldn't be surprised.

Thanks. I have PB days from 21-30 June and Pr on 1 July for 10 minutes. CS gave me rest beginning at 0010. It is my assumption they did this to prevent me from being eligible for a trip that might somehow conflict with my 2 July sign-in. I've can't see why else they would assign rest like that, they're basically giving away a full day of LC and they are doing it 2 weeks in advance.

That's actually probably quite close to the truth!

Reserve question:

If I get released to rest after a 3 day at 1300, I am on rest until the next day at 0100, and that next day is my last day of reserve before a golden x day, can the company use me on that day? How can they give me a 12 hour call out and get me released by 1200 before my golden x day?

Thanks in advance.

You will be on long call for the rest of the day so still check your schedule after 1500 base time to see about an early report. You are auto released at noon the day prior to golden.

They call you at 0101 and say "we have a turn for you leaving at 3pm and returning at 7pm." You are home before your days off begin. That's how. If they don't call you between 0100 and 1200 you are automatically released without a call to CS.

I thought I read something about a month ago saying we were getting rid of two duty periods in one days. I read this as "red eye day sleep night flight" but they're still all over the place. So what did they mean? What did we get rid of?
