It can...if you are flying a larger RJ (such as an EMB-170 or CR7) you may get put on larger stage lengths, lowering your total number of legs during a trip.

MSP has nice Saab trips...here is an example of a nice 2-day

DEP DES DEPT ARRT BLKT GRNT
MSP ABR 0900 1037 137 20

On the last day each time you go through SEA you have to clear customs, with all your bags, crap and such. Makes for a very very long day.

Yeah, contractual obligation. I think we have a sit of more than 4 hours, they have to get us a room.

yr| FO | CA |.| Credit | Hourly Pay + Per diem = Total
1 | $24 | --- | 23 hrs | $552 + $125 = $677
2 | $35 | --- | 23 hrs | $805 + $125 = $930
3 | $37 | --- | 23 hrs | $831 + $125 = $976
4 | --- | $63 | 23 hrs | $1449 + $125 = $1574
5 | --- | $65 | 23 hrs | $1495 + $125 = $1620

There ya go.

Wow $677 for 4 days work.... I need to keep on saving no way I can live on that.

Goodness man, how many financial obligations do you have?:eek:

First year pay isn't easy by any stretch of the imagination but I was able to pay all my bills on time and even save a few grand...

A lot currently. Although I will be done with school loans quickly. I only have $10k left. I do pay more than I need on these things so I can kick more towards the principle. It's not the paying the bills I'm worried about. It's the rainy day that hits and I'm not ready for it. Should I be injured or very ill or something financially goes haywire (furlough) I'd like to still have some reserves to fall back on. I hate paycheck to paycheck living. It's so stressful.
