Maybe 1-2 years....after that it seems like it would get pretty old.
The thing some HNL commuters like about GUM is the compression, which means they make the commute only once per month rather than a traditional 4on/3off to SFO, for example. Different schedule with longer blocks away & longer blocks at home but less overall time in the commute month by month. IF you come to UAL and IF Guam is available to you, it’s certainly worth your consideration, but it’s such a small part of our overall operation, I wouldn’t base my career decisions heavily on that domicile is all I’m saying.
