Now lets say there is Pilot B who deviates every DH. Their deviated DHs have the same number of delays/cancellations/extra hotels, but they are never compensated for it. So they're being penalized 5% of PWA guaranteed pay, just for flying on other metal while experiencing the same number of delays and late arrivals home, and doing something that benefits the company.
Pilot B should not get less compensation than Pilot A over the course of a career for this.
Pilot B does have a choice! If a pilot is bought off a trip should he also get reroute, leg overage and other pay for the trip had he flown it?
