Duh, it’s one of the perks of the job!!
Good luck however, I can’t tell you the last time I was able to drop a trip and I was single digit seniority in my BES before COVID. Then again maybe I was doing it wrong.

Legitimate question, and I agree with you. However my pragmatic answer would be, because on the narrow body grind, that’s where you really learn the company and the operation. Probation is also where you find out if you want to keep them. A new hire that goes straight to a widebody, and is a professional bunky flying 6 legs a month for 5-6 years then decides to go bid NB CA may be a problem child down the road flying 3-4 legs a day, or need a lot of hands on work to get them where they would’ve been if they’d been exposed in the right seat from the get go.
