But wait, you need 90 hours to complete a line, and now you have 20 workdays to fly 65 hours. Good luck. You'll have 6 on 1 off for the rest of the month.
So yeah your days off are off, but you not only pay for it in vacation bank, you pay for it by getting beat to death the rest of the month.
You never know. I fully expected to be worked to death around my vacation but ended up with this beauty for March, bidding about 69% in SLC:
The kicker was that I was able to get a couple of high-credit trips, including a 29-hour four-day (which I think was the highest-paying trip available that month; how I managed to get it, I have no idea).
