Check-in for Standby
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
When reporting for a Standby assignment, a Reserve must check-in with Crew Scheduling by using either the designated telephone in the domicile or the CCS Touchless Check-in for Standby upon arrival at the airport.
At their option, Reserves checking in for Standby may use the CCS Touchless Check-in feature on their Link or mobile device starting 30 minutes prior and up to their assigned report time. To use this option, you must have the location services enabled on the device and be in the vicinity of the crew lounge. To access, select Touchless Check-in for Standby under the Reserve tab in CCS, or select the option directly from the top of the MobileCCS home screen, as shown on the next page.
Ensure the correct airport station code is indicated (use “Edit” to change) and select Check-in, as shown below:
A green check mark will indicate the check-in was successful and it will be logged with a date and timestamp on the bottom of the screen. Note: Successful check-ins may also have a message to “Contact Crew Scheduling” displayed on the screen, which could indicate they have a pairing assignment for you.
Below are some common reasons you may receive an error message that your check-in was not successful:
➢ Attempting to check-in more than 30 minutes prior to scheduled report time.
➢ Attempting to check-in after scheduled report time. (Contact Crew Scheduling.)
➢ Attempting to check-in when not in the vicinity of the crew lounge or domicile. (Notify base leadership if you believe the coverage area needs to be extended.)
➢ Attempting to check-in at the wrong station. (This is more likely to occur at bases with co-terminals. For example, checking-in for Standby at DCA but “IAD” is inadvertently selected as the station on the screen.)
If you are still unable to check-in after verifying the above errors are not at issue, contact Crew Scheduling via the designated phone in the crew room to check-in for your Standby assignment.
