Trip lengths at legacies
I'm curious how long the longest trips are at the various legacies. I'm weighing the jump from the ACMI world where I've gotten used to having longer (8+ day) trips followed by an extended period off. Is something like this an option at the legacies? If not available in a bid package, could one create a schedule like this by dropping/picking up trips and would that be something reasonably achievable as a new hire? Thanks.
