not that the other one improves that, but it is a lot less work.

Also, sorry to beat a dead horse, but I just read the fan and it confused me more.
"A Pilot flying on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and New Year's Day will be compensated at the rate
of two (2) times their Regular Pay Rate (not Premium Pay) for the credit hours (scheduled or actual,
whichever is greater) between midnight to midnight Base Local Time, this includes any Deadhead time.
Pilots required to layover at a Blue City on a Special Pay Day, but do not fly, will receive four hours
(4:00) of Special Pay at their Regular Pay Rate."
The first part is crystal clear. Fly on thanksgiving; get double pay. So the 2nd part about the sit....does that mean if the trip credits 20 hours, I'll actually get paid 24????
