Its called Gateway travel with a positive space ticket and hotel room versus trying to get a jumpseat on your days OFF and having to use a Crashpad.

Seems we're staying pretty busy. We've announced some new partnerships, etc. I think we're a safe bet for another 6 months. Good luck with the investment, however you choose to go with it.

One thing to remember for the ~2/3 of the flying we do that is ACMI or CMI is that loads don’t matter. AAWH has a contract with whom ever to fly on their schedule. So empty or full, Atlas gets paid per their contract. I've heard they’ve renegotiated some rates for the crisis. But the 1/3 charter flying and Polar's normal routes it’s been crazy.

You misrepresent the situation under which that may occur.
You get paid the higher of CRT or Block.
Example:
You have a 17 day line and your first scheduled flight is on day 3.
Unless you’ve been assigned R1 ( at home reserve long call) day 1 and day 2 will likely not be spend at home.
You’re om company time and getting paid.
Well within their right to reposition you on day 1 which could be 36hrs before your flight.
The customer may want crews in position if they need the option to bring the flight forward a day. Boeing or AMC flying for example.
This is ACMI and not United you’re flying for.
You’re on company time, you get paid they can reposition you. Perfectly acceptable.

So gateway travel isn't always on your day off. It's fairly rare right now on the 737 (all Amazon, and not much CVG stuff at the moment). I would assume the 767 is similar but I have no direct knowledge.

When was the first time I was intentionally misrepresenting?
Sure it is a real ticket on their terms...
