With the new pay rates you will actually be making more money on this paring. Would you rather credit more under the current pay rates or make more money? I wish we would have gotten the 5hr day, instead of 5 hr per duty period as well. The thing is this paring is in the minority. It will probably end up in open time, and a RSV will get it. The majority of RSV never break gurantee anyways, so when I was a RSV I loved these easy parings. I think with the new duty rigs taking place whe PBS is implemented will raise a lot of these 4 days from 18 hrs to 22hrs to 25 hrs 4 days. The company doesn’t like to pay for soft time, so I think you will see the company use the optimizer to build more productive pairings to eliminate as much soft time as they can. ( the Union said the same thing at the Road Show) .
