The "IOE double dip" went away at CAL. Under PBS system the FO trips are not awarded. Dad had a 2+ month vacation, actually had to pick up 2 trips to not dequal and have to go to IAH and the sims. He also worked "tripple time" once, had the second trip "bought" and then worked a third.

They do have a duty rig but it is nothing great. Ends up being about 17hrs for a 4 day europe trip (48 hr layover). They were at 50% DH pay too for a year. It would not surprise me if the work rules in XJT's contract were better than CAL's.
