Trip averaging still sucks and we need to get rid of it. Ram is right. If we keep compairing our pay and QOL to the regionals we will never better our contract.
I meant block or better per leg basis. We only have it per trip. I.e. at RAH they have it per leg. If they go over on that LGA turn by 5 min on leg one, and under by 5 min on the return leg, they get paid 5 min extra. We don't.
