As many of you are aware pilots have been denied the ability to pick up trips (CIA and MUV) during the View/Add Window process due to “potential” lapses in qualification and currency. Through the Ongoing Implementation Measures (OIM) in Section 11, we have reached an agreement with the Company. Beginning no later than the bidding for the August 2018 bid period, pilots will now be awarded CIA and MUV without regard to potential lapses in qualification or currency (e.g., tri-annual LMS, 3-in-3, segment currency, line check).

We have also reached an OIM under FDA LOA Paragraph X regarding the Early Exit Option Transition Footprint. Beginning no later than the bidding for the November 2018 bid period, any pilot eligible to exercise the “Early Exit” option, as provided in FDA LOA Paragraph D.2.c., and who bid a secondary line shall be awarded a secondary line. Such secondary line shall have 42 CHs credited toward the pilot’s BLG, and the pilot shall have the ability to preference between 7 and 10 consecutive days free from duty in that bid period. If certain conditions are met, the OIM provides a guarantee that the pilot will receive the identified footprint without Fleet Captain involvement.
