Here's how a min day works on the line.
Envoy Day 1- 3 hours, Day 2 - 5 hours, Day 3 - 3 hours, Day 4 - 4 hours. Trip total - 15.
Other Airlines with a 4 hour min day... You start at 17.
At Envoy, Day 2, you overblocked to 6 hours, but Day 4, you got reassigned to 2 hours. You get paid, 15 hours.
At other airlines. You now get paid 18 hours.
It's all these little differences that guys/girls like you don't realize are hurting you in the paycheck.
You get rigs and min day mixed up.
I just agreed, this part of our contract sucks.
Anyway, how is this relevant to losing OT pay?
Again - who pays for those deductions?
Also, don't say "other airlines". There aren't many who don't use cancellation guarantee.
