Hey did the pilot tip fee change?
We are doing our year end report and noticed we tipped a pilot $250K for completing our Europe Tour and got charged $43 million. That's 172:1 and our multiplier at the time was 50.

Re: Pilot Tip Fee
What the tip system does is try to figure out the average multiplier was on all the revenue your airline generated, and uses that.
There were airlines in the past that would generate a lot of revenue at 1000x and then switch to 10x before giving tips, we had do come up with something to prevent that.

Re: Pilot Tip Fee
ahhhhhh that makes sense now why it is slowly going down the more we fly at lower multiplier factor.
