Now, I don’t care which way we go because I’ve gotten premium from once or twice from that and I also wished I could’ve picked up a trip in the fashion that you’re describing. I get both sides tbh. Again, totally up to the pilot group as a whole
i agree with banana as a whole I’d rather see more consistent ways to make and guarantee higher pay. Hate playing the sporadic random game of waiting for premium. I’m only in the 30s for premium time and I’m in probably the top 10% of those who signed up. Definitely towards the bottom of the list for getting a call. Some really milk that systems and it’s good for them. But having something that can be used by the whole group where we don’t have to wait for random premium calls or get lucky there’s irops with only a few reserves and all the people above you on the list are busy.
But back to reserve I just think pick up within 48 would have a minimal if any effect on premium. Might have a few less one day and a few more the next. Just by the nature of how our premium works.
