Secondly, is a week of vacation worth a calendar week or is it used in a formula to convert to hours or missed trips or something else
14 could be in the ball park for a 777 or 380 pilot on a high bid month. Maybe on low bid as well. Don't count on more than 8/10 on the 330-340 fleet.
As per the vacation question, not sure I understand it, but we get 42 days of vacation a year. You still get paid your basic pay during vacation.
