for instance i will have only flown say 40 hrs on reserve but im guaranteed 75 hours of pay so is open time additional on top of that 75
I wouldn't call it bonus pay since you are actually working for it and giving up a scheduled day off
Reserve guarantee is actually 76 hours a month. If you pick up open time outside of your reserve days, that is added to the 76 hours, but does not count towards breaking guarantee.
If you pick up open time within 120 hours of the trip start, you should be getting time and a half this month according to the letter Tracy Gallo sent out in May. If you take a trip someone else posted, then it would just be normal pay.
