15-59. Q: A Reserve has an actual sit time of three (3) hours. How is the Section 15.E.2 sit time paid?

A: The Reserve will be paid fifteen (15) minutes above guarantee.

Straight from the contract. You guys are morons.

Also the sit time gets absorbed into reserve guarantee so since I also have cqt this month, there is no way I can break guarantee this month so that sit time I had to endure didn't actually cost the company anything and I see no financial benefit for it.
Isn't sit time paid over guarantee?

Wow. Calling your fellow pilots morons when you are incorrect does not reflect highly upon you as an aviator. Read this APA negotiating committee update from 12/22/2023. Specifically paragraph 4. Sorry to make your long sits suck knowing you aren’t earning any extra $$.

I'm extremely confused on why the contract on the APA site isn't corrected then. I posted the same thing a few pages back:

EDIT: This is only about OG or PR, not awarded flying.

the date on that page of the APA contract is Jan 2026:

On the Compass Project docs, under Pay & Compensation -> Duty Rigs, dated Aug 2025:

Sit time is definitely not paid above reserve guarantee.

Don’t know what to tell you. I’ve got the paystub to prove it.

You got lucky.

Sit for reserves is paid above guarentee only if you break 73/76hrs

Paystubs still show the SIT pay, but it is absorbed into your reserve guarantee unless you go over it. They make it very confusing on your paystubs so it seems like you are getting it but you really aren't. If you did get it and not misreading your paystub then you just got lucky as the other poster said.
