I believe everywhere but ATL it is considered a complimentary upgrade for medallions and paying pax will upgrade before non rev.

Does anyone know of a PBS or Crew Resources archive for schedule data? ALVs, Res Guar, etc? The new site seems only to have 2 months before its gone..

No need for scope!

Delta is about to finally make the best move they can make. Once the deal with Delta and United is finally settled on the purchase of Expressjet the old ASA side will be stapled to the bottom of the Delta seniority list along with its current regional. United is going to take the original Expressjet company and add it to their's. American airlines is already doing something similar to this.

If you have on-call days remaining in the current month, they will be converted to PB on your schedule in order. Some judicious moving of X days ahead of time (assuming you can do so based on coverage) can make this more lucrative if you build it so your PB days will leave you with an orphaned on-call day, etc. (This requires an accurate forecast of how many PB days you'll be getting.)

If you don't have on-call days remaining in the current month, your timecard will show your PB days (it presumably shows "NBR PAYBACK DAYS AVAILABLE FOR USE: 0" for you now; that number will increase by the applicable number of days not available in the current month.

OE OR OBS REQUEST FOR TIME


Will you need time off during your OE or OBS rotation? If yes, then you must submit your request in iCrew before the 20th of the month prior to the bid period in which the OBS or OE training will be scheduled (Section 11 F.8.a.2). Once in iCrew, please go to the Personnel drop down, select Training OE Days off, select add update Training/OE day off requests, enter dates and comments. The planner will do everything they can to honor the off day requests that you’ve submitted. Each requests will be considered in accordance with Section 11 F.8.a.2.

The planner will NOT contact you unless they have questions, so please don’t feel it is necessary to call to check on your requests. We do not pull the off day requests until after the 20th of the preceding month, and most likely we will not be scheduling you for your OE until the 28th or later of the preceding month. The planner will place IOE on the days they’re planning to schedule your OE and will add the rotation once they’ve finalized it with a LCA. If you wish to originate your OBS or OE training from another base other than the one you’re assigned to, please make such request in the comment section. You will NOT be provided a hotel room, and you can NOT confirm a positive space reservation to get to/from your OE or OBS. Please also state in the comment section of the Training/OE days off request that you understand that you will not be provided a hotel room or positive space should you make such a request. Thank you and all the best to you in training.
