Yeah, I just said two flights to keep it simple. I like the ESK system, but its a pretty big oversight that AF can add an "all cargo" 747 and that not count towards the cargo portion when cargo capabilities on a revenue passenger flight counts. Pretty big loophole, especially considering its completely one sided and likely always will be,

Jockey is using "4611" as an example of what Delta Mgmt. will offer for the next contractual pay increases.

I'd take 4611 in a heartbeat if we started getting paid at sign in and stopped at block in +30.

I'm guessing it's the net effect of pay rate increases in C2012 after inflation?

Sounds about right.

I agree, T. But we wouldn't even need to increase our pay rates if we did that. Here's my last trip for example:

4-day trip - paid 21:19 @$199.57 => $4,255

If we got paid at sign in and stopped at block in +30 (release for each day), here's what it would have paid:
4-day trip - would pay 35:50 @ $199.57 => $7,145

That's a 68% increase... MORE than full restoration of 2004 (C2K) buying power. Just by being paid with the same methodology as almost every other hourly worker known to man.

D'oh!

Yes. Completely busted. Thanks, my brain must have been thinking the "payout" for the 2014 earnings.

I just hope PD doesn't harass me for the next two weeks over it!

(and WTH is 4611?)
