150% of total credit. Plus 125% if you’re over 82. Are you knew? Because that’s day 1 material

He’s referring to how much crew scheduling decideds to mark them up. For your example scheduling could make that trip Credit 8 or 8000. It’s their discretion. When people didn’t used to pick them up lightning fast you would often see a trip go for 8 credit. Nobody would take it for a hour so it would go to 10. Then 12. Then 16 ect. and somebody would finally pick it up or it would take long enough to be cancelled or a new reserve window.


To respond to Spooled up I always imagined it was based on the necessity of a trip. Usually why international are marked up with extra incentive.

Right,
It would be great to see premium in the PAF last more than 6 seconds. I know that happens on the FA side.

Premium has been sitting in every base for hours the last couple days. Almost 50 cancelled flights for no crews since May 31. I think this whole bot thing was overblown and people just wanted to b****. The trips that are getting picked up are still the same people and there's not really any new names on the premium trips.

There aren't new names on trips because the majority of people I fly with have given up trying or even looking. Why sit trying to grab one all day, waste your day and then get beat by the same 4 people anyway. People have deleted alerts because by the time you get an alert it has usually been gone for several minutes. The rest of the pilot group isn't even looking, because it's a broken system. So this is what happens.

They still aren’t putting enough incentive on premium for me to justify giving up a weekend day. 6:23 bumped to 7. Pfft no thanks. Even at 13.12 total credit that’s garbage IMO. That and the premium showing up at 1AM for a 5AM show. I’m going to sleep straight through that. I may have taken it if they had given a tad more notice. I know that’s not always possible.

Im am kind of laughing at the pick up every open time trip crowd now though. They pick up all of the straight time trips and the premium is rolling. Suckers.

Well there's neither opentime nor premium for most FO bases (I'm in phoenix and its dry as the sahara).. Premium is all on the captain side.

Rough count is 55 FO premiums system wide and 4 PHX since Friday at noon. Do you have your alerts correct? There was a premium in PHX today that went unfilled.
