Thanks.
Usually runs 2-2.25% over your hours.
Last month my A321 override was worth $5 extra an hour over my 80 hours credit and the pay was $404 extra. Month prior was more because of summer time block hours. But I usually just take my hourly rate and increase by 2% on my hourly rate and that is my effective rate with it blended, five or take.
Here is the language
The rates of pay for Airbus pilots shall be based on the ratio of total system-wide A321 block time to the sum of system-wide A319/ A320 and A321 block time (revenue and non-revenue) in the month. For example, in Septem-ber 2005, 2,400 block hours (50 percent) are flown in the A321, and 2,400 combined block hours (50 percent) are flown in the A319/A320. Therefore, all Airbus pilots shall be paid 105 percent of their rate of pay set forth in Section 3 of the Basic Agreement, regardless of which aircraft they are assigned/awarded, for all credit earned in the month. The overage shall be paid on the second paycheck in the following month, in this example, on the second paycheck in October 2005.
