Thumbs down roster restriction in WY

Dear All,

Roster plays a very significant role in the life of a pilot and the management is trying its best to make it work in the best interest of the company and the pilots. The computerised rostering system is being continuously monitored and efforts made to improve the quality of the roster. The first step was to ensure legal limitations are not violated and corrections were made whenever something came to light.

The next phase is to have a fair distribution of duty hours followed by improving the quality. Work was initiated a few months ago for improving the quality by planning for an OPTIMIZER which the vendor is developing for us.

With your cooperation and understanding, we have come a long way and the roster is now being provided by the 20th of the month. Adherence to the published roster is now a priority to enable better planning for the next month. Swapping of flights creates imbalance and complicates rostering, as such this would be restricted to only unavoidable and emergency cases, to be approved by the Fleet Capts. We are trying this for the next three months and with your cooperation make it successful.

Your feedback and suggestions are most welcome and would be given due consideration.

Together we can make it work for the benefit of all.

Best wishes
