Wow. You are not too bright when this is being spelled out for you for the umpteenth time. The MPG is critical in differentiating how Delta and UAL reserves get additional money for VDO/Premium trips.
If there is a 20 hour trip in premium time.
For UAL reserve, you only get 50% add pay (10 hrs) to give 83 total in pay.
For DAL reserv, you get full 20 hour credit added to the 73 MPG, to give them 93 total.
You still think it's the same now?!
If there were 70 hours in premium trips,
UAL gets 73 + 35 (50% add pay) = 108 hrs Total
DAL gets 73 + 70 = 143 hrs Total.
You are so right Guapo, it's exactly the same for both carriers. And that MPG and Add Pay is not different at all. Ugh!
Guapo, Please don't reply. Save yourself from further embarrassment!
