I am with you on the pay scale. I think are best chance is a United or FedEx type of scale with NB vs WB.

I only think how news like this is aimed at the stock price.

Payback used for a Res G/S
Okay, I have searched the posts on this thread and not quite sure about this.
I just picked a Res G/s 3 day. Only the first day is an X day and the last two are normal on call days. So if I understand this correctly I will get the pay for the hours flown on the first day over my Res Guarantee.
My real question is I have a P/B day on the books from a previous IA, Can I put that Payback day on my schedule on Day 3 of the trip? That would pay the best for me as it a 35 hour layover and then back flying into base day 3.
Anyone?

Keep an eye on two things; type (LR or ER) and temps. This time of year it's not too hot at 10pm there (departure time) as long as it's an LR you should be fine if you can find a seat, but in summer months it can be over 100F at 10pm....and that can be a problem even with the LR.
I flew 3 DXB trips last mo. and we were not payload optimized on any of them, but we were completely full on all of them out of DXB (not into) and left some non-revs behind. Some did get on however, but there were about 25 on the list.
One backup plan is to buy a Zed fare on Air France to Paris, then get on DL there.
If for some reason (MX usually) they put an ER on it, could be very tight getting out and they might payload optimize it. ER's are ships #7001-7008.
Check the ship numbers in iCrew, flight status the day prior. The 10 LR's are 7101-7110.

Awesome! Thanks Timbo.... I assume the code in travelnet 77L is the LR. Unfortunately, I'm sending people off S4 so ZEDs aren't an option. 10 days out so, the temp shouldn't be any higher and there are close to 50 seats still avail.

You will also get a payback day put on your schedule either 9/10 hours after you block in on a domestic trip or 13 hours after block in from an international (ocean crossing on the last day) trip.
