In your first year or so, yeah plan on flying a couple of red eyes a month depending on your “RAP” but after that they’re pretty easy to avoid. At 4 yrs in, I haven’t flown one in well over a year and that was only because it fit my scheduling needs.
A couple in SFO as well left for VA. Mainly due to commuting and schedules. I think it can be rough on the body over time. Throw in a commute and that makes it worse.
