Can’t find clear guidance in PWA or ALPA scheduling guidelines.

Thanks in advance!

You drop the trip with PB days. Your schedule will show TOFF. Your time card will show the trips original worth and it will be classified as credit and count towards your max for the month. You can white slip the same trip back if your MAX PICKUP allows you too. You can also GS over that time. You can pretty much do anything over that time you want too.

I am with you on the 23.M.7 provision (that one got several A350 LCPs paid for missed GSWCs and IAs making them less unhappy than their counterparts who are/were killing the GSs/GSWCs) but his background facts were kinda skosh so not sure where his Trip Removed for Company Convenience comes in. It sounded more like a straight-up "good deal re-route" where they reroute you into a "deal" where you work less and finish earlier but still get paid for the original rotation.

You can do that also. Drop the trip for mil leave and cover the trip with payback days.

I think they were canceling (deleting) the automatic calendar entry that was contained in the first email.

If the choice is between the two I'd go with Jet. It would make the perfect JV where we get a single flight a day while they fly daily to every hub.

Because Jim Mangie (a long-time management guy) seems to get a Tourette's episode whenever a Delta pilot gets paid for both MLOA and Delta service on the same day.
