That's nice! What was your credit per month? I like the fact that you can have days off or make coin..your choice.

Just had a 4 day trip bought for IOE. Scheds said I could pick up another if I wanted and get another 20 hrs pay. He could hear me laughing as I hung up.

They must have been dumbfounded when CS suggested to pick up another trip after they bought your original and heard the sound of crickets or a Harley start up in the background.

It varies greatly both individually and month to month. Some July figures were 86, 65, 95, 65, 88, 94, 91, 66, 95, 83, 75, 88.

Thanks APC. It seems if you sit back you get mid 60's and if you go for it there is some chance of money.

Just sitting here in my hotel in China wondering if I try to be reserve in GUM or IAH. (of course pending SLI thats totally out of our control) I am attracted to the reserve (don't fly) GUM, but after being in China commuting home the last 5 years, I am not sure if I can do 2 years in GUM. Not flying does sound good while getting paid as a line holder though.

10 days of flying in a row, days rolled twice in a row, 11 hours off during the day in base between trips, and my day off in 7 is 24.5 hours in MAN. Wish I had known my day off was going to be in MAN... I would have brought my laundry! Is this a MAJOR airline?

No Sh !t.... its a glorified low budget regional that happens to fly international.....

For a while I thought CAL capts were bat sh.. crazy... they were doing a blend of Rainman talk and murmur chants, rocking their torso back and forth.....
