The trick in ATL is to go through F (international) terminal security and ride the "plane train" to your gate, always much smaller line, especially in the mornings in addition to a KCM and a starbucks right before you go through or one inside F itself.

Whatnif you have to check bags? No issue with that?

If they had to go through a security line and then stand by, they wouldn't have come at all.

The line at MDW SW check-in was 80 deep this morning.... did I mention it was 3 AM? Looks like F16 Mike is stuck in ATL.

Just the portion paid above what you flew should pay at the higher rate. Rotations flown will pay at the applicable rate for the aircraft flown. So basically, every time you get used and it's not on a 321, you are losing money.

I would think that the portion paid as reserve guarantee should pay as 737-900 pay if your base has 900's in the bid package.

Ref PWA section 4.C.1.c:

"The hourly rate of the highest paying aircraft model that all pilots in his category may be required to fly in the bid period"

Looooooong O and maybe it's spelled ay? Think a cross between Great White North and Fargo.

After reading the contract it looks like for the portion you fly you are paid at a weighted amount based on how many 321's are on property. So with only 2 on property that is not going to help much.
