I work about 85 hours a month, and I rarely ever see pairings with scheduled deadheads and other "soft time". Everybody always speaks of wx cancellations and the corresponding extra pay, but in the entire time I've been here I've only ever had THREE cancellations, and even then I've never had a day off rolled. I suppose its great when it happens, but unfortunately it almost never happens.
I think the fact that I can hold day trips is whats making me really max my pay. I have line #606 fo August in EWR, take a look at it, you will see where I am able to make a lot of extra cash. its 95hrs of flying with 15 hrs of DeadHead.........
Also if you bid a line with a lot of flying in the beginning of the month, but you flew a ton at the end of the month, you will have those days turned into RA days, then pick up flying after the RA days so they can't put anything on those RA days, so you get paid 3.75 or whatever it is for th RA days.......I had 3 RA days last month I was not used.
