Reserves Picking Up Open Time to Prevent Drafting
Reserves can volunteer to pick up Open Time to prevent drafting by placing a request on file in CCS. These requests may be placed on file at any time throughout the month, and there is no limit to the number of trips a Reserve may pick up from Open Time in this manner. If the Company is faced with a drafting situation, Crew Scheduling will process requests in seniority order. If awarded, Scheduling will attempt to contact the Reserve by telephone.
➢ If the Reserve does not answer the call, Scheduling will continue down the list of Reserves who have matching requests on file (and who are legal for the assignment) until contact is made or until the list has been exhausted.
➢ If contact is made with the Reserve, the trip must be accepted.
To place a request on file, use the Reserve Open Flying Request to Prevent Drafting screen in CCS. To access, go to CCS > Reserve > Reserve Prevent Drafting as shown in the next image.
Once on the screen, select “Create New Request”, as shown below.
From this screen, you may enter a specific pairing number or preferred criteria that corresponds to the type of trip you would like to pick up, as shown in the next image. Once submitted, if any trips in Open Time meet the selected criteria, your request may be considered. Again, requests will be considered in seniority order.
The following table describes each of the criteria fields on the request screen:
