You think guys will be jumping to pick up double red eye jungle turn 4 days on trade boards? Nah, I'll just drop it and be done with it.
Here is the difference: "I got my schedule, im going to drop this 3 day trip so I can take a trip" vs "I got my schedule, ill post it on the trade board, of someone wants my double jungle turn redeye, I can go on that trip"
And sure, im all for more PTO, doesnt mean im giving up industry leading drop provisions for it. I'll take both, thanks.

Work rules, once gone, usually never come back. I know you have it all figured out in a year, but you’re wrong on this.

Freedom to drop(green grid obviously) without having to swap, trade, use pto or whatever else way one needs to manipulate the system to work for them.
I hope the majority of the NK guys, specifically SPA ALPA are willing to die on this hill!

Man, what a selfish short sighted opinion. Obviously, you’re not familiar with the crappy open time or lack there of in other bases like DFW CA side. Drop to zero is less about the zero part and more about the drop to freedom!

Also us not having “drop to 50” or “drop to zero but must finish the month with XX” means more pilots are willing to float trips out in open time because they aren’t worried about the company forcing trips back on them to meet a credit target. This is why even if you never in your NK career drop to zero credit, it still benefits you.

Most don’t understand the pain experienced when the company was blatantly ignoring the red/green language that we had to fight for all the way to winning arbitration to just keep what was negotiated.

That said I will be using drop to zero this summer and that plan starts today. I’ll still work a little but when and where I want.
Your kids are only in a window for a short time of old enough to travel easily, and young enough that they don’t have other commitments like many teens do. YOLO
