At lots of airlines crews get 4 days per year in the sim, either 4 individual days or 2 blocks of 2 days. Few if any airlines will have added extra sim trips. Adding sim trips is not straight forward, you need both sim capacity and the ability to take crews off flying. These days most airlines have very little slack in their system.
