Pretty sure this was a dig at Southwest.
Two ways to trade: with the company and with fellow pilots. If I want a stretch of days off, even as a junior pilot, I’ve been able to get them. As to the specifics, read our forum, it’s been discussed ad nauseum. Is it perfect? Nope. Can it be improved? Absolutely.
As to getting JA’d, you’re paid double time for it. If you’re fatigued, you call fatigued, and you’re off. Get JA’d and you have a big event, call your chief and your trip is gone.
