Making extra at FX has hardly been a problem, our guys have busted their butts flying extra the past three years. You end up having a lot of makeup credit by bidding conflicts that allow you to fly extra. You can also volunteer. Like any airline the extra flying comes and goes, if there is extra flying you can get it at time and a half.
