Amen to the plane swap charge. There's a BIG difference between a 1:00-1:15 turn with and without a plane swap. Without a plane swap you have a few minutes to take a breath, don't have to pack up and then rebuild your 'nest', possibly grab a bite to eat outside the plane, or even take a 5 minute stretch-walk that ISN'T a walk-around.
