I’d bet if you looked at the LAX 737 bid packet, and removed all the nice looking trips with trans cons and one leg a day type flying, it’ll look similar. I don’t think the base is fully “stood up” so it’s hard to tell.
Take a look at the bid package for LAX320B. Vast majority of trips start with a red eye. And there are basically zero commutable trips. I’m thinking you meant red eye, not deadhead for the first leg. Seriously worse than NYC320B in my opinion since they are starting and ending at all the different bases near LA. Bring on the deadheads if would make things more commutable for people. But the last couple months has been absolutely terrible bid packages.
