I haven’t done anything further south then Mexico City, and no Africa for me. Not that I’ve tried to avoid it, but I yellow slip trips that start late and or end early if I can so I can commute. There are plenty of 4 days that start with a 0600 check in, but I haven’t been doing many. I get bumped to short call often rather then sitting long call.

I was fortunate enough to get this category as a new hire this spring and haven’t regretted my choice yet.
