Yes, if you take your 84 hours of vacation a year, you can be awarded 90 hour lines all year long.

90x12=1080
subtract 84 hours vacation
that leaves 996 hours.

Will it happen? maybe not, but they can do it if they want to. I am tired of people looking backwards for defending this contract.

90 hours a month is way too much, weather it's just for the peak season. I make mistakes when I have flown that much. Now, because of this contract I will be forced to fly 90 hours a month. I think it was better when the overtime hookers picked up the extra in the busy seasons.

It's so funny that people vilinized the people who worked overtime because it hurt furloughs/upgrades/new hires, but this contract gives so many efficiencies, it does way more damage. Oh yeh, and I still make 15 percent less than jblue pilots flying with 23 more seats per plane....cool.....
