So it paid 11:15 with trip our trip averaging vs 15 hours if we even had a small 5 hour min day.
This is trip averaging. It is industry standard though. Delta, united, and Jetblue all have it I know for sure. They do average per calendar day not duty period like we do which is better in most cases and the average is between 5:00-5:15 not 4:30 like us.
I think FedEx is 6hrs min calendar day and no average. Fly a two day with 7hrs day one and 1hr day two you get 7+6
