Furthermore, how common are trips to the Bahamas and/or Caribbean during the winter?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I presume the frequency of this is not strongly correlated to where one is based.

Thank in advance

Yea, just call the FOC and ask to get overnights in the south. I'm sure they will be happy to accommodate you.

Honestly, it varies. Some are better than others as with anything. It really depends as previously stated on the experience level of the person you are flying with. In other times, it is a mindset. It's a blast sometimes, others not so much. Back home a retired 74 guy fly's with me on some contract flights on the off weeks. He is NOT fun to fly with. Experience doesn't always equate.
