1 and 2 days are hard to get on the PBS bid unless you are very senior. If your in a very understaffed category then you can often get them via white slip pickup or swap with the pot during the month.
as far as 3 day trips it’s a little easier. I’d consider myself junior trending towards mid seniority and I can hold exclusively 3 day trips on the 737.
All category dependent and can vary month to month. Best way to gauge it is to look at the monthly bid awards for different categories.
