Default Dont get burned by this: Credit vs Pay.

I saw a question about the difference between "credit" and "pay" which reminded me of a "Duhhhh" moment on my part - not that I had any say in it.

If you have a trip that crosses months, hard pay (block hrs flown) is split between months, but I believe all credit (could be just trip credit) gets tacked on the last day of the trip - ie the new month.

Well if a leg cancels in the first month, the credit will be applied at the end of the trip - in the next month. It makes sense that the company will not know trip credit until the end of the trip.

No worries - unless your credit bump now prevents you from getting that Sweet 2 day WS because you are over the max pick-up.

Wow. Even though it was a 'small AE' there still appears to be some good movement. Wonder what the next one will look like!!

That is the seniority number of the most junior person that got an award on this AE. Not the most junior pilot in category.

Craptastic! Yeah, I figured that out. Also realized I'm 300 numbers JUNIOR to that. I left ATL ER because I kept moving backwards. Figured I'd finally be able to have some forward movement. Nice to know that an 11 year, 4 category, 3 base streak of moving backwards has not been broken

But Ferd,

You wouldn't be able to enjoy that barstool in Saipan anymore if you went to the whale. You could, however, enjoy the hot spots of Manila, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Haneda, and Tel Aviv.

Upon further review, 8 on top, 3 left, for a net of 5 numbers down. Three came in under. This slot swap thing better happen fast.

Oh, thanks for asking T. His cast hopefully comes off today. Thanks to the 73 OE planner I can be here. KM, thanks very much!
