Question about red eyes
How many red eyes are built into the schedules? A lot? I've read on the threads here and it seems there are quite a few red eyes, with 11 hours off and then repeat.
Just wanted to confirm since the new contract, nothing has changed in this area. I know PBS is coming, but that could be some time yet.
Have an interview coming up. Just wanting to make sure I have a handle on what I could be in for.
Thanks so much.

For those of us that used to do A LOT of night flying, I don't see the problem. Let management schedule them if they can get utilization out of the aircraft, and then up the premium on them until the bidding is competitive with day flights. Problem solved.

Is the company having trouble staffing redeye flying? News to me.
We didn't negotiate any such provision.
