Delay pay maybe the one to chase if you care about IROP's which is something the optimizer can't figure out how to minimize.
Granted who knows how that will change crew tracking behavior in when they decide to cut you lose for the day or push you into a day off as that is deemed cheaper.
This is the kind of discussion that meeds to be had vs just pointing to Delta and going, " We want that"
We ended up with ACD that way. Granted it had its benefits, but it absolutely sucks to have a great 13-14 hour 2 day which delays or pushes you into a third day and all you gain is an extra hour of pay for that lost day off......
