The company would hate that much credit so scheduling would figure out how to make us fly for 5:15 hours on day 3 instead of sitting in LFT. Seems like an even trade to me, company gets more productivity and I have to work fewer days to reach the ALV. I'm all for flying 3 busy trips instead of 4 inefficient ones to fill up each month.
