what would it pay if block was only 10 hours for example ?
The 2:30 has to do with you min protected pay for that month. If it's a 30-day month, and you have no absences, your min pay for the month is 30x2:30 = 75 hours.

5:15 per calendar day has to do with pay for a trip. If you have a 3-day trip, it doesn't matter how much pay/DH is there, or how many duty periods. Your min protected pay for that trip is 15:45.

I have to chime in on this.

IT'S SIMPLE.

Seniority based up to 72 hours before. Put in like you would for a trip trade. At 72 hours, most senior person gets it. After that, if nobody has listed, first come-first served. Now everybody can plan. Easy.

Could drop to the bottom. A new hire could pick NBFO in new hire class and still get to the left seat a year or so later without the things that go along with getting left seat bid on day one.
well they still have to be an fo for a year. Assuming that there will still be unfilled capt vacancies.

Right. They'd be in the right seat the first year anyway. So why volunteer and bid for the left seat in new hire class and take on all of the associated restrictions when you could just bid it a year later while leaving multiple ways out of the fleet, open?

You don’t know me or my situation. If you’re looking down on me because I don’t live 30 minutes from EWR or SFO, then you can enjoy the overnight on your own.

For many people it’s not a choice, so you can shove a marshallers wand up your b-hole.
Commuting is an “option” this industry allows. It’s a good benefit that we even have the ability to exercise it. What you mean to say is that commuting is not a choice for you and your family. For some commuting is not an option because we have no interest in doing it ever again. I advise all my friends retiring from the military to do the following:

If momma is cool moving to base, move to base.
If momma doesn’t wanna move to base, don’t move to base. Better to commute home to a happy wife than to drive home to an unhappy wife.

Hopefully this doesn’t make me an A-hole,B-hole or any other type of hole. Now back to actual contract talk.

where are you getting a year from? Those with 350 hrs in type at UA and meet 121 requirements will be able to upgrade while on probation.

is this lineholder only? Since reserves have more days off now

Reserve minimum pay guarantee (MPG) 4:17:39 per day: *17 = 73hrs give or take


Also, Reserve Call-out pay (“Show-No Go” pay) increased to 5 hours of LPV -> if you get an assignment that is subsequently cancelled before show? because if you fly anything it’s 5:15 minimum right?

Our resounding NO vote last time
was huge for this cycle…just like the DL no vote last cycle gave us a great extension last time and me too when DL patterned off it. 35-40% total raise is huge.

No. they have to still have 350 hrs at UAL to go to upgrade, so it can’t be your INA award. You would have to something else first no matter what.

that 2:30 has nothing to do with MPG, min calendar day and min average calendar day are all in reference to the actual pay for a trip. That min calendar day keeps them from loading all the flying into less days than the trip length and then forcing a day off layover in a city that results in no extra pay. I.e. fly 8 hours day 1 and 3 and layover day 2 and results in no extra pay. Now that 2:30 would kick in for that middle day as well
