SWA does not get paid by the minute...just saying.

Yes it does. Over-block is one of the things that our pay computation looks at. The other one is how many 243 NM segments are covered in that particular leg. Then there’s daily and trip rig to factor in.

So yes, we are paid by the minute as “overfly” is considered. Unfortunately, it’s only after five minutes of overfly/over-block that this kicks in. Over-block by four minutes and there is no extra. Over-block by seven minutes and you get the extra seven minutes.

Let’s hope the first four minutes of overfly for free gets fixed in the next contract.

I’d like to thank SWA for treating jump seaters and ID travelers like actual human beings. Sadly, my family and I are treated a lot better with you guys than on my own company flights.

I’ll second that. Always treated like gold JSing.

SWA took care of me every time. While I am glad I don't have to commute two legs with them anymore, i do miss them. They are good people.

But now i know why you taxi so fast, to make up for the rampies. :)

You know, those AS gates sit unoccupied an awful lot. Perhaps DL would be better served to share with them? [emoji3]

This still hurts. So bad.

What? You wouldn’t rather pay twice as much for a personal pizza that tastes terrible?
Thanks, Chicago politicians!

The closing of Potbelly's is pretty much what lead me to became a foodbag hauling Sherpa.
