I think the i crew code is “C” for conflict. Not sure if it differentiates between GSWC and IAWC

I have to commend the Delta PR team...it looks like they have done a pretty good job at keeping the reason for the crew cancels on the DL..pun intended

Doesn’t appear to be the case. Sick calls down YOY.

"While we have recently seen an uptick in COIVD cases with our pilots over the last few weeks concurrent with the nationwide increases, cancellation numbers would not suggest that COVID issues are the cause in this case," Chris Riggins, a Delta first officer and ALPA spokesman, said in the union statement. "It's also important to note that sick calls are down over last year despite being embroiled in a global pandemic."

I think we have more then we know. Ask me how I know. COVID sucks.

the code is C for in base Green Slip with conflict. I saw a few of those on AtL717b a day or two ago.

If in doubt as to the codes, just hit the help button on the bottom left of the trip awards screen. There are two pages of them....even a “T”. Who’d a known!

C = Assignment with conflict.

Just hit “HELP” on the Trip Coverage page for an explanation of codes.
