Also, a little know fact is that you get the JRA+prem @ a 5hr minimum. However trip and duty rigs apply to JRA+prem as well. If you are gone an additional 2 days, that might kick in.
Ok that’s what I thought, trip pay protection, plus JRA Prem.. the trip flew like 3.7 hours and away for more than 60 hours, not sure how that all works, but thanks for verifying pay protection + JRA prem

Little known fact, the JRA@PREM is usually there, and then for me, mysteriously disappears... About 75% of the time I have to make a rainmaker comment to get it back.

Darn ATC.

Are you sure it was ATC? I was under the impression that it was the FSS strike in Boston?

I’m sure they’re checking with our business partner.

Almost like they hope you dont notice. Same thing here. I wonder how much wage theft made it's way into the $700M buyback and ELT bonuses.

If they were trying to steal it you wouldn’t be able to check the numbers and add a comment. You don’t need to wait till you get your check you can see this stuff almost real time. Do they make mistakes yes as does any payroll department and even us pilots flying planes. There is a ton to be mad at but rainmaker access isn’t one.

Oh Joe. I hope you are just misunderstanding our commentary here.

Typical for me, I get a cancel that holds me into my day off. I check rainmaker and the trip correctly shows JRA@PREM.

Then I check rainmaker a week or two later, and 75% of the time it is mysteriously gone!

The fact that it is there correctly, and then later missing tells me it was manually removed. To call that a consistent "error" I think would be terribly naive. I've never seen them "mistakenly" add JRA@PREM to my schedule...

Yes, having the ability to check rainmaker is good, I don't think anyone suggested otherwise.

Respectfully.

Some guys take critique of B6 personally for some reason.
