Redeyes
 
Is it just me or are we seeing a lot more red eyes? (Into Charlotte) seems like there are more 4 day trips ending with a red eye as well. Looking forward to Jan 01/2019

TUL? I thought DEN was short.

4 days that end early are awesome in my book. Assuming they aren’t a 17-20 hour four day.

Sorry TUS airport.
The night starts in DFW-TUS-CLT

Give me a redeye at the end versus a 3 leg day with a EWK turn any day of the week!

I’m guessing that 4 day trips with embedded red eyes will increase dramatically after (if) we get ACD. It’s a way for the company to get a red eye with little if any soft time.

The way to take care of this is with a real ‘night rig.’

Does anyone have a good example of what a good night rig looks like? I know USAir has one that was a few extra bucks in the early am.

Also I saw that we’re going for a “average day” in openers how would that effect redeyes?

Why would they go for an average day when they got it outside of section six?
