Probably a TON of truth to this. I think most people are fine with 10-25% of trips being two days. (I would sign up for that.) On the other hand, if you were talking 3-4 day trips, there would a mad rush for anywhere else. All of the other ULCCs (pending Frontier's TA) pay better and are more commutable. The only reason they have been able to keep pilots this long is the ability to be home every night. If we started doing the standard 3-4 day trip thing, no one is going to be willing to do it for a discount, unless they are very senior and can't get hired anywhere else.

I know my apps would go live about three seconds after that announcement was made.
