Luckydog,
Since you are junior to me I won't discourage you from coming to ANC. FliFast on the other hand must remain in FL and fly South America trips out of our Cuban base, I mean MIA.
Seriously, the lines this current bid period weren't as good as the previous bid period. However, with the quantity of open time which consist of mostly 3 day trips, it isn't too difficult to make yourself a 3 on 4 off schedule with weekends off (even while being on probation).
It is of no surprise that the commuters hate the three day trips... There is a choice though due to the variety in ANC. 3 day, 4 day, 5 day, 6 day, 7 day and 12 day trips. Plus ALL of the reserve blocks are 15/13. If you are seriously interested in making the change, keep checking the bid packages and see what you can hold!
