If I were to go to Piedmont, is it possible to get a line with 5-6 days off twice a month (to get the 11 days total)? I will have to commute as I am looking for flow and Envoy doesn't seem to be hiring FO's for a while. Also how does PSA's schedule compare?

Piedmont schedules.. you will have mostly 2 say off blocks and one 3 day off block every month.... 11 days off per month.. and they will abuse you..

Okay I see. Thanks for the fast info I don't think I will be able to do that without moving to base.

Good luck getting much better at any other regional.

I understand it's going to be hard to string that many days off. Maybe 3-4 would be more realistic. I could do the standard 2-3 day blocks but not without moving to PHL. I don't have family anywhere east unfortunately.

Not that your guaranteed a commutable line at piedmont. However remember that 2 days off in between with a commutable trip on both ends is better then 3 with a non commutable trip.

A one leg commute should be doable mostly. Many of PDTs trips start late on day one and finish before the last flight banks out on day four.

Most of our trips are commutable. Moving to base would be a wise choice and will improve your QOL dramatically. This is the better option.

Almost anywhere other than Piedmont has better schedules. My buddy at Republic, based in PHL as a senior FO has precisely ZERO (0) overnights in July.

Would like to take this moment to remind everyone that sooner has never had a schedule here at PDT so take what he says with a very large grain of salt. Sorry sooner
