Well that sucks. Just as a side note, there has been a couple of time when I’ve entered the dates just as you did but fell thru the cracks somehow. I’ve called then about a week before the window of days I entered and I get “huh” don’t know how we missed you, thanks for the call. Shortly thereafter it’s on my schedule.

I’ve had similar experiences to Denny. I’ve also had them call and ask if I could do it on days off, but they did say it was only a request. If I preferred I could have expired and then done a requal on my next reserve days.

So I've read the contract and think I know the answer, but not sure.
The scenario is, a 4 day worth ~23 hrs, all block. Weather delays so get ~1 hr of overblock, then rerouted into a higher block turn in the middle of day 2, so now the trip is at +1.5 hrs. But then we time-out at the end of day 2 and are given domicile layover which removes about 4 hrs of flying, taking the trip back down to the original 23 hrs pay.
My question is, do we have any protection for the extra block we flew if later in the trip we go underblock? Or is it just rotation guarantee?

That's kind of what I figured, just wishful thinking that maybe I missed something, thanks.
