I don't see them bumping pay to 200% anytime soon. Most people can only pick up a day or two here or there with min days off anyway.

Now that they hired Larry Snyder to OSC that makes it even less likely. This was the tool from United who was in our crew rooms 3-4 years ago telling us we'd never see 200% again since we "didn't help out during the Holidays after that and hung large screen TV's on our walls with the money." Mind you this was still during the time that new hire F/O's were making $28k a year or something.

Thing is that 200% would make it more viable to come in for a short little 5 hr two day and an overnight. I'm sure the passengers would appreciate getting home at night and the folks in the morning taking the first one out would appreciate not getting their whole trip messed up.
