December to April all are 30 day bid months (leap year February ends up with 31). Why they make November 31 days and December 30 just goes to show that Envoy likes forcing square pegs into round holes.

Based on union numbers I’ve seen, March is definitely lower average days off. The slightly higher average credit doesn’t completely make up for that when compared to January. I’m thinking they are trying to cram flying into overall fewer lines to try and bump up the reserve count a few more bodies, but that’s just a guess.

In my earlier post I said March credit was “way” up. It IS up, but only slightly. After looking at the numbers a little closer “way” up isn’t really the case.

The beatings will continue until morale improves…
