For reserve pilots flying on days off, VJAs pay 1.25X normal rates, and JAs pay 1.5X normal rates, on top of reserve guarantee.
For all pilots, over 82 credit hours those numbers are multiplied by 1.25, so VJAs pay 1.5625X and JAs are 1.785X. Best trips ever for me in the last few years were 14.3 hrs credit on a 1 day JA in June a few years back, and 35.7 hrs for a 2 day trip starting on a Christmas Day.
But then again, some 357 fans think that our contract sucks. Still can't figure that one out.
