Just happy to be here.
Good…If you get busted selling/buying a trip at my shop, well, it’s going to fare poorly.
Still saddening its a needed policy, but another win for the air line.

Predatory towards ones peers…
Im not sure why this take of yours irks me more than others…but it does. Sure, pull that ladder right on up after you've ascended the next level.
We had senior FOs at my shop do the same, bid the “destination” layovers only to trade them back via the board asking for more credit…
Its almost like a century has taught some of us nothing about camaraderie in this profession.
Yes i know, you’re view is that abject capitalism is always good; given your seemingly lifelong position of privilege relative to your peers that makes sense.But they’re choosing to pay, voluntarily. How’s it any different when someone wants to get rid of a trip, and they offer $400 to anyone who can take it away. Bottom line, money is being exchanged along with a trip.
Whoa hold up. What’s wrong with bidding a 11:30 credit Hawaii 2-day, and then putting a handshake request (trade board) asking for a 2-day trip that pays more? People do this all the time.
Or a guy gets a min credit trip (like a day trip) on the trade board with a request of looking for higher paying day trip.

Well, I'd guess it kind of depends on if seniority (for trip bidding purposes) is intended for people to fly the trips that they want, or if it’s for making money off the lower number plebeians?Abrogation of seniority.
Abrogation of seniority.
On brandNot on the original award. Seniority is honored.
I guess I’m the lone man out in this one. I couldn’t care less what someone does with their *originally awarded trips*
On brand
“You do you, Ill do me”
Works very well from of a position of superiority.
And if the person selling that trip makes more money per hour, has the ability to win that trip without contest, and does so specifically to capitalize on more naive or desperate peers?…If it’s your trip, I don’t care what you do. Including “selling” it for $500 to some other guy.
Thats just me![]()
