Our 3 day trip min guarantee pays 19.5 TFP which comes out to be 16.97 hours, basically 6.5 TFP per day. Most 3 days are in the 20-22 TFP range these days
With many 24+ TFP. Nowadays it’s easy to swap into more productive trips. I’m even seeing many 4-days that are 34+ TFP.
As far as narrowbody schedules at AA, there’s no comparison to SWA. SWA is far more productive.
As compared to the 737 or 320 at UAL, DAL, or AA, a pilot at SWA can probably work 2-3 less days to credit the same amount because our trips are so productive.
