Our minimum scheduled overnight is 8 hours, our duty days are extendable to 15.5. We can wait on hold with scheduling for an hour, because they took away trip trading over the computer (and that's in the contract).
Compared to alot of other airlines they are great, but we still have a long way to go.
Never said they were great. Sure there is alot of room for improvement...but things are never greener on the other side of the fence. Unless of course you work for Mesa, GJ, TSA.....
