It is indeed their prerogative to not provide travel to and from, but I doubt that this why.
I agree. Sorry to continue the tangent. As for the commuting questions, lemme tell you what the most junior A330 FO's got for september:
looks like one bid max cred. and took fewer days off (10), got 6 LAS 3 day's worth 11:45 each and a Haneda 3 day worth 15:40 = 86:10
another bid min cred and got 13 days off, 4 LAS 3 days (one goes into Oct.), 2 LAX 2-days worth like 11 hrs, and a SAN 3 day for 12 = 75 hrs.
the LAX show time was 0700, LAS 1400 (release 0515) or 2130, Haneda 1805, SAN 1335. all besides that LAS @ 0515 got released around 12 or 1300 in HNL. So, you could probably catch mid day flights back to mainland after your trips, but not likely to commute in the same day (which I wouldn't want to do anyway). sorry if that was confusing.
