But the best way I could describe PBS for someone who hasn’t used it is you’re bidding for specific trips that meet your preferences rather than for whole months.

Some trips are going to be better (higher credit/weekends off/less legs per day) and some are going to be worse (lots of low credit days/working weekends/lame overnights).

You’ll soon learn that your average daily credit is the most important thing with pbs. The more credit you get per day of work the more days you’re going to have off and at home. PBS is going to build your schedule and stop once it gets to a certain credit window (~78 hours or whatever company decides is min monthly target window) Once you hit that window it’s done and stops adding trips. If it can build a schedule to 78 or 80 hours in 10 days you’ll have 20 or 21 days off. So you can see that 8 hour or higher credit days are ideal but probably hard to get (senior). If it takes 16 days of flying to hit that credit window you’ll only have 14 or 15 off.
