As he said, for years the Airbus and 737-300 fleets lost pay for any lost flying for any reason prior to the 20th of the month. It was our infamous "LCC" rules. Only flying after the 20th was protected. Be thankful for the protections you have now and hope we can prevent a return to the gutter someday. The contracts many pilots are flying under overseas along with the ME3 / NAI type of encroachment should be of grave concern to us all. Enjoy that profit sharing check.
