I don’t know about all of you, but I have a hard enough time on a four-day PM. Both of my last trips had me walking out of the terminal after 1AM, and I’m a PMer. It takes me at least two days to be on track again.

doesnt the company have to collaborate with the union now on schedule construction? Although I'm pretty sure they didnt do that for Sept

I don't have the contract in front of me now, but I believe that all starts in earnest for quarter 4, however don't go off me, I could be way off base on that assumption lol.

Or put SWA bucks in it.

section 9 paragraph 5 states that they have to collaborate..I thought I remember on a podcast that that would happen on Sept pairings but didnt because of the rewrite and the company not wanting to collaborate

Maybe we'll get some extra Kicktails and SWAG points for each red-eye flight.

The bids for the September lines open in four days; I would hope they're made by now!

Vacation trading for September is still open for a few more hours...I doubt Sept bid lines are finished. There's a reason they are sometimes released early (on the 3rd) and lately not until the 4th closer to the required deadline
