My day 1 consists of a DH leg only. I'm a commuter. It'd be just as easy for me to commute to the airport they are trying to repo me to as it would be to commute to my base.

Question is do I need to commute to my base and actually catch the DH flight to get the pay for day 1? Or can I commute to the 2nd day starting point myself and still get paid?

Thanks in advance.
