Earnings Call
#91
Open time is basically first come first serve after OT opens. We do have some priority trump cards but they are few and far between. We also have premium pay trips (150%) that are assigned through AVA (request submitted up to 7 days prior) or draft (usually day of or day prior) to cover trip. Extensions past 2ish days pay 200%, plus other soft pay kickers. Many beg for these extensions due to big pay.
Unlike many airlines you can drop to 0 hours or credit 300. Anything is possible. No holds bar. My previous legacy gig had mins you could not drop below. Other legacies have mins and maxs. Many also force you to fly x amount or all your straight pay prior to any premium pay. At FDX you could drop/conflict all your regular trips and only do all premium. 300 credit hours is achievable for those willing to hustle and many did it for the last 2 years.

*Sounds like Southwest seating criteria: “First come first serve!”
Once again - Thanks again for taking the time guys!
