every time someone gets hosed on pay credit or some other scheduling snafu, that person should email chuck colgan. I bet he has no idea what is going on. Let him get 100 letters in about a week, and I bet some schnit gets changed. At least some grief would flow the other direction for once............

Please don't think that I'm trying to throw anything in your faces but I wanted to give you some perspective on what it's like at XJT. As the scheduling committee chairman these emails go directly to myself and to the contract compliance committee. When ever a pilot has an issue like this they contact us. I in turn contact crew planning or crew scheduling. I bring up the issue with whom ever is in charge for resolution. 90% of the time it is resolved right there. If there is no resolution we add it to a list of things that we discuss when we meet with the company. If it is not resolved there then it goes to a grievance or group grievance. At this point the company is legally compelled to respond. They simply have to or else the arbitrator will issue a ruling. Granted this takes time however it also takes time and resources from the company so they hate dealing with it. Thats why 90% of the time when I make the initial call it's resolved.

Just wanted to give you a heads up on what CAN be achieved. Good luck folks.

This is one of the reasons we need ALPA. By the way, scheduling to be partially outsourced with Pinnacle soon.

Time to go buy plenty of lube. At least ALPA would provide the condoms.:laugh:

The reason hotels arent done SOMETIMES is because when the schedules are put in there is no way for us to pull a list of who is going tdy and who isnt, its just luck that you pull a schedule and see that they have you TDY and that something needs to be done, if you dont call, they wont hook you up.

Union or no union (and we DEFINATELY NEED A UNION) don't you think this is something that should have been attended to a long time ago? I am QUITE confident that there is a mechanism that could be developed to catch this, or a different way to go about it which would negate the problem.

This happened to me once. Show up at hotel 0 dark 30. No reservation, and suprise, no rooms. I mean, it's a busy summer weekend at a popular vacation destination, why on earth wouldn't there be rooms? Crew scheduling has to scramble to get me a nasty room on the other side of town. Whole scenereo was completely unnecessary and totally irritating. Especially after a LONG day.

Keep sending those cards in!!!!!

How about you put a space after the comas on your oh-so-impressive list of aircraft flown and I'll ignore the fact that you're using all caps, double-returns, sentence fragments, multiple exclamation points, and PINK FONT (or a light red) on your post. Deal?
