Oh, totally. I get it. I'm kinda ****ed at myself for attempting to pick it up at literally 12:01pm. If I'd spent 2 minutes less with the internal "Do I really want to work on my days off" struggle, it would have been a non issue.

Where is that spelled out? The MOU specifically states 200% of their regular hourly rate. It doesn’t say, where I can see, that reserves get credit stacked on their guarantee.

I know a FAQ is forthcoming. Hopefully addresses these questions

It’s seemed to have worked. All the opentime has vanished. And paying a FA double is what $75/hr . Paying a captain $500/hr is a bigger hit financially. But the amount of 200% trips going out has been almost unprecedented anayway.. just carpet bomb all work groups with extra pay.. and survive the week the best they can. January and February are notoriously slower month so I don’t see this as being systemic .
more of a Covid/holiday crush. Things will return to normal in January.. but this upcoming summer .. it’s Gonna very interesting.

Okay here’s a question. The email says all flights flown. What about DH’s?

I’m really desperate! You should see what I have to pay every month towards my car loan for my Miata, pet insurance for my 4 cats (Sprinkles, Fufu, Mr. bubblesworth, and Steven). Not to mention the alimony for my crazy ex-wife that is sleeping with my brother.

fairly senior FA your literally talking $40-50 when you offer 200%.

I have no idea how we have FAs work for this $hit and how we even have an airline with 160+ aircraft and 600-700+ departures a day. At the end of the day this business does NOT happen without those in back. Truly amazing to me.
