I've flown a 1/3rd of what I'd flown by this point normally (and that's saying sometin) and barring a SC trip I probably won't fly again. And I still think this 80 raw score is wrong even if I'm benefiting from it. I think for a domestic NB take the longest trip in category plus 2 days of SC. That should be bucket 1.
For an international category, no idea. Ya'll figure out your own problems and stop asking the NB people to fix your messes. It's like what NASA told the crew to Apollo 13, "you got yourself up there, you can get yourself down."
Thank you FTB at least someone gets it. I'm at raw 130 for the month and it's been pretty miserable. Last week I was excited to hit a raw of 82 after sitting a short call, flying a 5 day, and a 2 day. I started my next group of days thinking ah this won't be so bad afterall. I was then rewarded with another 4 day and my 3rd redeye in three trips. Now I'm at 130 with only one SC in my pocket so I'm guessing scheduling would give me more SC's but alas I'm off to training for the rest of the month. But at least I'm getting paid right? Nope, 66 hrs credit.
My favorite was one of my Captains who didn't believe me that the seniority system figured into buckets yet....he's on reserve and an ALPA committee guy to boot. Great guy, great captain, enjoyed the trip, but yikes...bad info to be spreading around.
