Pretty sure the a321LR falls in the “family rate” of the 320 at JB...just like there’s no override for the 321 over the 320, there isn’t one for the LR over the regular 321 or a321NEO. The A321LR has one more ACT and a slightly higher GW than the other A321NEOs...otherwise it’s identical. Lots of JB pilots were not happy about that, but 74% voted it in. Hopefully when JB starts actually flying TATL and opens section 6 shortly thereafter, this will get fixed.
There’s a $13/hr night override that will pay out on many of the trans Atlantic legs (because they will touch the 0100-0500 base local time window, triggering the override for the entire leg), plus the intl override of course ($6/hr CA / $5/hr FO). But neither of these overrides put the A321LR rate where it needs to be.
