Frankly once they arrive at their home airport and clock in they should be on the clock… other hourly people get paid when they have on-call and can’t do their own thing, or if there’s a business trip, so why shouldn’t they? The only exception I would see would be a stay over somewhere but again, they’d be clocking out when they left the airport.
They get paid for on-call as well as overnight stays but it’s a pittance. I totally agree that as soon as they show up they need to be paid.
