The SWAPA Ride Report: Deadhead Self-Release, Training Move Up Preference and Contract Q&A

December 05, 2025 • SWAPA

In this week’s edition, SWAPA Communication Committee Member Tony Mulhare discusses the recently implemented Deadhead Self-Release functionality in CrewHub and how to set your training move up preference on either your EFB or via SWALife.

He also provides a timely reminder on where to find Holiday Pay Override information on the payroll report. This week’s Contract Q&A discusses timelines for when scheduling has to run uncovered flying through the open time process before assigning a reserve, holiday pay overrides and trip trading, a question on added flying to the end of a pairing, and more.
