I’ve seen lots of junior pilots ( CA and FO) with great schedules and great vacation.
trade weekend reserve for maybe a trip and trade that for another weekend trip is the most common thing that people do.
but it is true I've seen people who trade till they are only left with day trips.
Idk how, maybe they have an agreement with someone senior etc.
it's possible but I've only seen two people consistently do that in my base and they've been here 4 yrs.
I would come here knowing you will work weekends until you are at 50% base/seat senority
