monthly credit
On average- what do year 1, 2, and 3 f/o's earn for pay credit hours? looking for a normal month shuffling schedule as needed for the best schedule and reasonable amount of days off. Reserve credit? Build up? line holder?

I know a lot has changed since DOS and will change more with PBS. Under the old rules I raped and pillaged. One month I had 19 off with 135 credit! I know of very few FO's near DTW and when the $hit hit the fan and they needed someone all you had to do is tell them what it would take, I always told them the deal was only good while I was on the phone. Once they called me and I just happen to be staying 15 mins from the airport and I got JR man, move up and pay protected for a 4 day. All I had to do is fly 3 legs. I miss those good old wheeler dealer days......

Reserve is 72 and we gave up drops with new contract. So always 72.
Lines are 72-80 hours, there is zero open time after the first 10 seconds of DOT. So if you need a day off or don’t want to do a 4 day full of red eyes. Expect 50-60 hours credit at best.
I don’t know anyone who’s been called off the X list recently.

OOOk.
I have done maybe 1 redeye a month for the past 3 months, have kept 0 of my awarded trips, and just swapped a 4 day 3 days ago (well past DOT).
It's not the doom and gloom you describe

As a line holder you can work about as much as you want. It won’t always be pretty. There may be some red eyes. Last month I credited 86. This month will be 95. Or you can just take what the scheduler spits out and get 72-75.
