Once your at a major your getting 15 hours after 2 legs on the beach. Then the next day 18 hours in Alaska looking at glacier. Finally do a Hawaii overnight at 30 hours then come home. 2 legs a day maybe 3. The bigger the plane the fewer legs you fly.
Exactly, haha. On a 4 day now. SJU/EWR/PIT. Days 2 and 3 one leg a day. Both 18+ off. Today was literally EWR-PIT. 1.4 block and 22 off. Totally blows. Lol. This trip credits 23 hours. Our true block will be 15:45ish by the time we finish tomorrow. That’s over 6 hours of soft pay - something that never existed at G4 (unless you count picking up RAPs and somehow not getting called) 🤷🏻♂️
