Airline Pilot Central Forums - Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

Definitely a fluke (or a change in philosophy) for the 73N. Normally, one or maximum two legs per day since we're TRANSCON guys. I think I've flown three or four legs in a day only a handful of times. That might be changing but I haven't seen it yet.

Buzz,

Yes. It looks like you LAX 73N guys have mostly 1 or two legs a day. I looked at the ATL 73N packet and saw a lot of their trips have 3, 4, and even a 5 leg day.

I think they are taking it easy on you guys because they are unsure of the effects that the tiger blood and Adonis DNA that you guys possess out there, has on flying. :D

Perusing the LAX April lines it looks like we have A LOT more multiple leg days then normal. Three and four legs a day are not unusual and the destinations are odd as well. MSN, GRR, MCI, PTY, etc, are all new. Plus, looks like we're going back to a high percentage of SNA departures. At one point last year, we were at about 35% of all of our originators out of SNA, then that disappeared. Looks like we're heading back in that direction for the summer.

I was thinking the same thing.

If you are DH'ing home, deviate and get home earlier.
