How many legs a day do you guys usually fly? In New England and The Caribbean.

Same in the Caribbean, 2-12... depends on the route length and base staffing.

Up to 12 legs. That's a lot of flying.
Thanks

FYI, 12 isn't the norm. You can expect that in bases like Vieques where the flight segments are very short... those 12 legs can add up to only 3 hours flight time in some cases.

Depends where you're based. The folks based in AXA and NEV might only do a couple round trips a day being a longer flight. When I was in STT I averaged 6-8 legs a day which was about the norm, with the occasional 10 leg day and sometimes only 4.

In regards to FO's in the Caribbean, there isn't any. If one is needed its TDY(per diem & hotel) but its very rare
