An example was given...crew signs in for DTW-AMS but mx just found an issue and it's going to be hours before it's fixed. They would get 5 hours of pay if they extend their duty day to wait around for it to be fixed then fly the leg into an extension. A buddy said he's also heard of guys getting it on redeyes from HI or AK. Maybe a UAL guy will come along and correct me.

Bottom line, their rules wouldn't impact a vast majority of our extensions, and I wouldn't want to entice guys to extend because of the money...because they will. Along the same lines, I hope we never have the ability to sell our vacation (any more than we already can).
