I hate to admit it but he is right to a certain degree. However, if the system is broke don't ***** at us, they need to get with ALPA and fix the lines. If I am a commutter and I am faced with a double deadhead RFO trip to Europe or Asia single departure line versus a 2 departure no deadhead LAX-AFW am out and back flying line in the LAX bid pack, guess what I am going to pick...They need to mix up the lines a little more. Throw in a good short flying trip along with the RFO trips. Senior guys will bid them then. They are not going to punish themselves flying hubturns if they don't have to.
