I wish we didn’t give away CKA trips btw. But if your schedule was mostly bought off in a typical month than you are in the extreme minority. And if you’re senior you can have prime vacation weeks and likely get overtime pay on top basically earning 300% on a vacation
This is my last response to you
I don't look down on other seniority levels, just people like you who seem to be allergic to logical thought processes.
I realize I was in a minority, but taking CKA trips hurt everyone at some level, not just the guys who bid those specific trips. If you don't know how that works, well, I can't help you. Maybe someone else on this board will pick up the baton and try and explain things to you.
I've run the numbers. All of them. All scenarios. I lose money and work more whether I stay as an FO or upgrade. The only difference is the pay cut is less if I upgrade so off I go.
Again, I'm done with this conversation. Maybe one day you'll get it. Doubt it though.
