We got the deeply beloved OE trip drops in the first place only because we gave them a one year freeze for NH pilots. There is zero chance they'll grant relief on that outside of the already existing situations where they have to (first time upgrade, new category, etc).
If we are able to make this happen, it will only be because of a massive loophole zinger and the company caught in awe saying "omg we didn't think they'd do that"
I suspect they'd deny it anyway and take it to arbitration, bust out the NNP's and argue (likely successfully) that this wasn't the intent. But who knows maybe its worth a try.

Anyone try to list non-rev on Southwest the last couple of days? A friend told me they were no longer taking phone listings and wanted us to list on my ID Travel. However, there isn't a way to select a specific flight (like AA). Anyone else hear anything? Also, no change on the DALPA Jumpseat page.

Three days under the new PWA and we already have an interpretation/implementation issue. Gotta love APC. You guys are arguing FOR the pilots, right?
This will continue to be entertaining. And I thought I'd quit reading after the PWA. Popcorn anyone? My prediction is sailing will take a company line on all these issues.

Careful with that. If the FCFL fare you get is based on an "off the shelf" non-refundable fee (which it almost always will be), then the FCFL fare is non-refundable as well.

Does anybody know if move up vacation awards or CQ awards are processed first? I'm trying to move a vacation week during a month I have CQ. Side note, they cannot assign CQ during a vacation week correct?

Not sure the order. There are however no activities allowed over vacation. It's vacation, no work, let's hope it stays that way!

I have a partial IOE pull for my trip that starts tomorrow. It starts on day 2. In the past they've called by 7 the day before the trip, but those were for full trips. What do they do for partials? There are flights to deviate home from tomorrow, first one is before 7pm second closer to 9pm. Am I going to have to wait until the later flight because they won't tell me until 7pm?
Second question. So you can't schedule your back end deviation until you check in. What if the flight oversells before you check in? Will it still allow you to book on it or are you out of luck for that flight.

2) iCrew sometimes allows bookings on an oversold flight. It just depends on how many bookings are authorized. If iCrew won't let you reserve, the flight is booked to the maximum authorized and you'll need to try another flight or book a jumpseat.
