The transition might bite in terms of splitting trips at s-CAL, but I'm thinking M5D is one of the good things, no? Why is everyone going to be ****ed? I'm not following.
Don't get me wrong. It is a good thing. We simply have a culture at sCAL that wants productivity over soft time. Breaking off the front end/back end turn of a 3 or 4 day allowed for more time at home and less away. Sitting in a hotel getting 5 hours of pay for the day vs sitting at home is a no brainer. What's scary is flying a 757 to HNL with no GPS.
