No it's pretty much an open season flying buffet for all of us. I've been over 160 hours credit for 4 months straight. My best is 192 hours. Well over 10k per month...just recently flew one leg of 51 minutes for 16 hours pay. Being somewhat understaffed has been great for many of us money wise.

Admittedly I could have phrased my statement better.

Aren't PSA FOs like Envoy FOs getting 20k over 2 years?

FOs on property get 20K over 2 years. So 10K / year.

I am flying with a CA who actually said this last night, "I don't know why more FOs aren't going to PDT to upgrade quicker and snag the bonus".

Oh I know... And that was my response. That and if you do the math and estimate it takes another 2 years from present time to upgrade, you'll be making year 4 or 5 CA pay at PSA. The financial difference is actually pretty negligible in the grand scheme of things and you would be giving up seniority as well as being on reserve a long time at PDT. They are experiencing this year what PSA experienced in 2014. It will slow for PDT soon enough.
