We are losing OGG and KOA in April. PPT will be gone until Oct31 as well. We were supposed to start HNL-HND in March and they’ve gut that route now as well.

We do a lot of other HNL routes though, some of them 3 man. JFK/MSP/SLC

Latin America - SJO/SAL/GUA

big transcon machine to DCA/BOS/JFK (a lot)

During summer there will be some Europe rotations, not sure how many but the base has grown a lot so I assume more. Some months we’ve had 40-60 pairings. Most months we get 3-4 Europe pairings because we’ve had so much Hawaii block hours.

during NBA/NHL a lot of charter flying. There’s some bad trips in packets going to ATL and doing the 3 leg day stuff up and down Florida or Charleston/MSY etc. As junior guy you can expect that kinda stuff.

If you have anymore questions feel free to PM me. I’ve been on fleet here about 1.5 years now but I am senior so I don’t have a huge grasp on what junior guys are doing. The flying will also be changing this summer because we have lost a lot of Hawaii block hours. Better now that we still have some other long haul HNL, but what fills the gaps is yet to be seen, and the base is growing rapidly so I’m very curious about what’s next. I know our Atlantic flying on ER this summer is due to be massively larger than last few years.
