CREW ACCESS HELPFUL HINTS
ADVERTISING TRIPS
When you advertise a trip it currently selects both the trade and grab boxes. Uncheck both boxes and then check the box that applies to the transaction you are seeking.
For example: If you only want to post the trip to give away as a “gift,” check the “grab” box. If you want to trade your trip then you would check the “trade” box.
This is a fix on the list to have both boxes default to blank. This will prompt the FA to select which option(s) s/he desires.
OPEN TIME TRADING
Question: When trading with open time, can I check all the trips that I want to drop into open time and process one transaction for all trips in my cart?
Answer: No. You can only drop one trip at a time into open time. Add trips from your roster to your cart, one at a time, and then process your drop into open time.
The system is not designed to process multiple drops into open time all at once.
Question: Do I have to “unadvertise” a trip that I’ve posted in order to trade it with open time?
Answer: No
Question: How do I trade multiple trips with open time? (Example: I want to trade my 2 day trip for 2 turns?)
Answer:
• Check all trips from open time you are seeking to trade with (Creating a filter is helpful with this!)
• Check mark all the trips from your roster you are trading (this can be done in either order)
• Go back to your cart and Click Swap
Expect OT to close very fast this month.
TSN CODES: TO or NO CODE?
New location of TSN code: Now located in trip header next to the pairing number.
In Crew Access the codes have been simplified: No code = TX. TO = TO, DD, and CP.
Please refer to Section 12, Exchange of Sequences, of the CBA and review the following link for more help on trading with Open Time:
