Umm. Well rsv in base where I spend the day with my family and still get paid is a day off in my eyes. Since my kids are all young that time at home with them might as well be a day off for me. Rsv in a hotel room away from base... yeah that's a different story. Only bummer is I can't have my whiskey.

True. Lots of domestic pilots layover in their hometown and sleep in their beds every night. I get those sometimes, need seniority to get them consistently. On the flip side I am on day 22 of my 40 days off block using 12 days of vacation. Have another block of vacation to burn later this year. You call it work...I call FedEx the best part time job out there.

Well at least right now at AA it's not quite as good as it was pre-COVID because we are using the WBs on a lot of high capacity domestic routes. Still being used much less than NB. Even on the NB side the Bikity to proffer for easy broken trips in DFW at least makes life better.
