That is the NEW way like NWA. The old DAL way was a set amount, like $1200, depending on your longevity. The new way is WAY better. Thank you NWA!

If any of you can't handle that extra $$, I can give you an account number to transfer it to.:D

Shockingly, I can't find the reference to it anywhere, but, the 30th paychecks are now 1/2 of that particular month's reserve guarantee or something else?

Yeah Boog, it's in there. I'll see if I can find the reference. I thought the bank made an error in my favor.

Later though, or the Captain will be mad i'm late for pick up!

Yup, we're still getting half of the reserve guarantee but the reserve guarantee just went way up...thus the bump in the first of month check. My wife has already spent it. Don't know about you guys.

Also, been flying my butt off and the airplanes are packed. Haven't had more than a handful of empty seats in months. Non-revving? Forgeddaboutit.

We better be making some serious scoots.

But the reserve guarantee can move between 72-80, so we are going to have 2 checks that vary month to month?

Boog;

Of all of the possible TA items, this part was a win. If you are always on reserve and are an inflexible budgeter, I guess it could bug you, but this part was a win.

Maybe I am misunderstanding your post.

Yes, but look at it this way. You have a steady 36 hour check coming in at the end of every month. In some months you get a bonus when the reserve guarantee goes up above 72. If you are confused by that, you can put the extra in my account.:D
