It's varied quite a bit over the last year. They always start on Monday, unless Monday is a holiday, in which case it will start on a Tuesday. Some months have had two classes a month, and some have had three. In all cases (except the first month of this hiring wave) the first class was on the first Monday of the month. The next class or two it has been pretty variable, with a bias towards the beginning of the month. To be more specific, from the start of this wave:

BB,
There really is not a "typical" trip. Lots of trips start with a red-eye, a few have embedded red-eyes. 1,2,3,4, and now 5 day trips. The 737 pretty much has everything from 4 day - 4 leg Trans-cons to trips with 3 or 4 legs on some days. Most trips probably average about 2 legs/day.
Then best thing that can be said for our bid package is that there is quite a bit of variety. In February the LAX 737 guys also had a few ONT trips (4 trips signed in at ONT). These seem to come and go - we have not had any for months and it might be months until we see them again.

Unless you have a last 4 higher than mid 5xxx.....in which case you should definitely wait for the Mar class.
