If I explain this poorly or anyone else has anything else to add, feel free to chime in.



At Republic, you're paid the BEST of four scenarios: Block or better, 4:12 minimum day, 2:1 duty rig, and 4:1 trip rig.



Block or better: The flight is scheduled for 2 hours. You fly it in 1.8. You're getting paid 2. You fly it in 2.2. You're getting paid 2.2.


Minimum day: If you have any duty, you're getting paid a minimum of 4:12. Fly IND-ORD-IND? You're getting paid 4:12.



Duty rig: For every 2 hours that you're on duty, you're getting paid 1 hour. So if you're on duty for 12 hours, you're getting 6 hours of pay for that day.


Trip rig: Take your report time at base and your release time in domicile at the end of the trip. However much time that is, you get 1 hour of pay for every 4 hours. So if you're gone from base for 36 hours, you're getting 9 hours of pay. Trip rigs are really only effective after about 4 days on the road. Or.... if you're in BUF in December and are stuck there for 10 days because there's 17 feet of snow on the ground...


And remember.... it's the GREATER of those four situations.

So after all that, what’s a good idea of our take home pay after taking away taxes and all that?
