Mesa schedules and trip mix
Just read Skillets incredible statement on another thread that Mesa does 6 day trips with only 2 days off afterwards. Is this the case for line-holders or just reserves? Is there any trip mix, day trips, two days etc? Is everything at min days off after 117? 6 days away from the family seems insane for a regional.

Max trip length is 4 days, Reserve duty is up to 6 days. The duty length depends on how you bid for days off. Longer duty lengths means more days off in a row. Reservists usually get 11 days off/ month, but lion holders may get up to 16 days off depending on base and seniority.

Here we have someone saying that 6 days away from family for a regional is insane, yet Silver's NC thinks that 18 (extendable to 20) consecutive reserve days is perfectly wonderful and is the best thing since sliced bread!

Are you guys able to use FLICA at all to improve your lines? That sounds pretty horrible I hope they are working to address that in the new TA. What's the point of seniority if everyone is getting the min days off?

It's useless, the only thing out there are 8 hour three days with 30 hours in Rochester, NY.
