My goal would be to bid desirable trips and drop/sell most of them, maximizing trips that start/end in TN/KY or with any DH to stay on the clock longer during the commute. Priority is max sched control (recently widowed with school-age kids) vs destinations or comfort. I was A320 before my time away from the company and am sold on it's merits, but would trade comfort for better schedule control or more commutable options. Looks like senioirty would be 30% at CLT & 15% LGA. Thanks for helping me figure out best current method to be around for my kids on the weekends and have trips desirable enough other pilots will consistently take them off my hands.
