3.85% of credit is accrued. Let's say you get worked 90 hours a month, that's 41 hours of vacation for the year.
We "get to" pay 2.5-4 hours per vacation day as we see fit. So you're looking at 10-16 days a year. For anything below 5 years. Of course senior guys get it better. I'll post a screen. I used 7 days at 2.5 recently and ended up with 16 off. So stretching them by using them at 2.5 is not a good plan

I was surprised at the pay too when I transitioned to jet CA. But that's the rough gross. PBS likes to assign 85-90, but I drop down (and drop trips) on the rare occasions it lets me. I think I'm getting more per-diem from multiday trips, and most awarded trips tend to actually block higher than scheduled. Our schedules do take me through flow-prone hubs a lot.

Being based at SFO seems like at least a 10% bump.
Not recommended for commuters however

I'll get about 80 hours a year to use. I can use it at a rate of 2.5 up to 4.0? hours per day. We get it as a pre assignment for PBS. I always select 2.5 hours per day so a week would take 17.5 hours. Now with PBS it's possible to get a couple more unpaid days off on either side or work the days right next to the vacation.. With 17+ years I get around 4 weeks off a year theoretically. The problem with using 2.5 is that PBS is still going to build you a 85-90 hour line. It'll force more flying onto your schedule to make up the difference.

Probably not. I understand we have about the lowest accrual rate in the industry.

And they reduce the number of slots in summer when everyone wants it off.

Don't they actually have enough slots throughout the year to cover the amount accrued? I assume that means you roll ever your accrued time? Do people use vacation time as a lump sum retirement/resignation payout?

People generally get paid out when they quit.
