There used to be wording in that contract that granted grandfather rights IF the base reopened within a certain time frame. I can't find that in section 8; anyone know the answer?

8-C-6 (so called Grandfather Rights)
8-C-6 When a vacancy or vacancies occur in a Category from which a Pilot(s) has been displaced under the provisions of Section 8-E, the displaced Pilot(s) shall, for a period of 120 days beyond the effective date of his displacement, be offered in order of seniority the vacancy prior to awarding that position under the provisions of Section 8-C-5. This 120 day period is measured from the effective date of the displacement to the date on which the vacancy bulletin is published.

With the company announcement of a DEN 756 base reopening, I would like to hear what the flying was like when the base existed before. I am probably a ways from holding it, really just curious. I've flown with guys that held it and they spoke of flying 3 Hawaii trips per month. Probably transcons as well I'm guessing.
There was a short time when the 767 would fly a Hawaii W over five days. DEN HNL SFO HNL DEN. Two nights in HNL and one in SFO, but that was a very rare trip and I believe only one summer.

If I remember correctly, wasn't line pay value capped at 85 hours with everything above that going into a bank to be payed out in the following months?

Continental had that. You could bank up to twenty five hours and draw from it in a light month or you could get it all paid out in a vacation month.

LGA-DEN..
Flown out of EWR base (75-3). 2 day, pays a little over 10hrs + crosstown pay.
About 8ish flt hours.
Another type of trip that can be flown out of the DEN 765 base.
Saves 60 hotel rooms, 60 xtown pays, 30 limos.
There's probably a bunch of turns they can do, along with 3 and 4 day trips that will pay M5D but not invoke Trig Rig.
Opening any BES is a good thing. Means the company is trying to utilize the fleet/manpower efficiently.
Up to us to make sure we have contractual protections to make it beneficial to us..
Either a higer MinPayPer Day, better Trip Rigs or better Profit Sharing.
Wonder how big the base will be?
