[QUOTE=SD3FR8DOG;2961534]A330 flying at HAL. Maybe even recently, folks getting hired right into the 330. Most jr trips are to Japan and report for duty around lunch time day 1. 24 hr layover then home by lunch on day 3. @UA most likely going to have trips longer than that, especially on narrow body.

I fully expect a fair amount in the jr 100 on the list to churn over and persue other opportunities. I mean why wouldn’t you?

YES! that makes the 330 appealing.

I guess the only reason you wouldn't leave HAL is if the family was comfortable living in Hawaii. Otherwise you'd have to commute to/from the west coast with UAL, on even longer trips as you mentioned above.

Great info thanks!
