Credit time is also a function of inefficiency. Higher daily credit would possibly solve all of these issues, say 6.5 hrs per day.

If you removed the inefficiency from the pilot scheduling/flying side of the equation, the f/a's staying with the pilots would be a logical follow-on to improve their efficiency/utilization.

Hell, we just need to buy more planes.
