I think the first day of service out there was yesterday (the 22nd). All I know about the place is off the hotel committee's site. The hotel is:
Palau Hotel Resort - Palau Pacific Resort - Palau Pacific 5 Star Resort Hotel
I'm looking forward to getting out there sometime too. Put some info up when you get back.

Hey Ferd,
Id like to be the proverbial fly on the sim wall that hears a fNW guy panic, revert to manual overide and say something like "Engine Failure Climb Mode." This, of course, would shortly be followed by, "FilchMaxContinuousThrustBugMeToVZF." The sound of crickets would be deafening.

LOL. From a southie you'll most likely hear "Heading Select, Auto-throttles - Off, Talk to Tower." At 1000' "Bug Flaps One Speed." " At Flaps One, "Level Change," "Max Continuous Thrust," "Engine Failure Check," "After Takeoff Check."
Followed by, "*** is filch?" "I have the aircraft." "Are you a northie?" "Geezz, you guys."

Hey I've got a re-route scenario for you experts to analyze for me.
On reserve finishing a 3-day trip.
Last day has three legs worth about 5 hours.
Potential re-route which would add on one leg to a layover then a deadhead back to base the next day.
I know I would get re-route pay for the one extra leg and the last day, but I almost read the contract (23.L.9) to make me believe I would get re-route pay for the entire third day plus the last day.
Also do you get payback days if re-routed into an off day on reserve or just the 1.5X pay?

I do not have the PWA in front of me, but I have been rerouted in to an X and * day and all I got back was the off day with no premium pay.
As I take it they can most those days off as they see fit. The * day basically is a day they cannot move, but for a IROP that cannot get you back to base, they can violate it and have seen it done.
Part of the reason I never schedule anything on my first off day that cannot be moved easily.
