LAX gate construction is finalizing so the WB ops should trend more junior again.
CLT was never an option, those trips look terrible. I flew less legs on the CRJ!. Cost of living in Colorado is way lower than in California, no cheap....but for sure cheaper. DEN-LAX is noa a terrible commute, but once again, I'd become a commuter. DFW WB with 3 of those super efficient trips would be awesome, but I'll be 52 by the time I can hold any of those trips lol.
