First/last day deadhead would destroy our average line value.
I just see so many red flags in that.
Only for guys that take the DH and or Hotel. The point is to build just enough that they are dropping the DH and the Hotel before starting the trip. Boom, no hotel costs, guy gets “based” at home, and FTDT drops to the non mini base line value.
Two flights to domicile a day, then build two lines that start that day at that min-base. Throw on the DH prior and after and let guys bid it.
Increase or decrease the lines from each mini base so they aren’t buying hotels and the guys just drop the DH.
Costs the company nothing and can make QOL a huge huge improvement. Play nice with the union and they’d probably be able to do it as a real mini base. Do like they did with Aspen. Allow guys to bid a mini base three to six months at a time. They can build the lines based upon the number of bidders.
Okay, no more freebies.... Ric, feel free to call. The number hasn’t changed.
