I credited 79 hours in 5 days this week btw. Pull out your calculator and figure that one out.

Yup I retract my previous statements. I’m on glideslope (but won’t get there) to do close to 300 hours this month, and I’m not even one of the hustlers, they just keep SRMing w/ conflict and throwing 100% add pay on trips in open time that I can then pick up with new found days off. Never would’ve imagined they’d open up the wallet like this. It’s crazy, squirreling it all away for winter! Kudos to the guys killing it.

Only thing I have to add is for folks to be checking their pay for these premium trips. I’m perpetually on reserve but my last four trips have been VDO trips and three of them (two 2-day trips and one 3-day trip) had the add pay screwed up.

Agree.

Just picked up a 3 day Trip for tomorrow at 100% and the add pay is over $300 less then the trip yet the hours shown on the pay register are the same.

It takes them a few days to catch up and adjust it, I usually wait until the trip is finished, then check my register.

Ok thanks for the info. I’ll check in a few days.

It’s actually my first PPU ever so learning the nuances.

I set my phone up today to notify me of premium pay trips for the next couple of days (starting the 14th). I set it up to show ORD, IAH, DEN, EWR, & DCA. I snagged one out of ORD, but forgot to cancel the notification while I worked outside all afternoon.


I have deleted over 100 notifications after my pick up, and I just had two more pop up since I started writing this.

May-Aug, and we’re not even finished with Aug yet...both seats in EWR 73, guys/gals have been getting paid. This summer has been highly lucrative. I might buy a boat! LOL....
