When doing the math, trips with a 22-23:59 hotel stay are probably going to trigger the 3.5 duty rig anyways, which would pay more than the additional duty period.
In the end, a layover that long, 22 or 24, will cause a large TAFB number and the 3.5 rig will be paying us for it for a majority of the pairings.
Not if they have a redeye and have one less duty period than calendar days. It might be base specific but I see a lot of these trips. The trip rig wont trigger so it’s either hard block (still not leg by leg) or it’s the averages duty period min with the long overnight credit. Almost all are under 24hrs.
We can also say that the time away from base is not that long so you’re home more but it still covers 3 working days so it takes more working day to hit the min credit for the line build. 18hr four Days like this will now pay 15:00hrs. Many pairings like this
