Keeping in mind that April is a 30 day bid month, our schedules are pretty decent. System wide days off averages 15 days off. Denver bid packs only contain three 12 day off lines, eight 13 day off lines, sixty-six 14 day off lines. Basically if you bid in the top 60%, you are guaranteed at least half the month off. ORD is even better with NO 12 day lines and a couple 13 day lines. The top 80% line holders will have 15+ days off. It seems to me our overnights are better next month too, lots of long Punta Cana and Cancun, some 30 hour Portland and Seattle overnights.
I won't ever defend the pay here, it is atrocious. Schedules tho, are not much of a legit gripe unless you've been here for 5+ years.
Thanks for the insight, schedules sound great.
