According to SWAPA 42% of the pilots commute. Trust me, someone wants a line of nothing but PM turned AM commutable trips.
And the company should offer several lines like that in each domicile so that those who do want them can fly them.

It'd be nice if they'd put them all in the same line so folks that want them can get and keep them, and reduce the number of them in the ELITT minefield.

And you have to get up early on at least one of the days.

Personally I’d prefer a late PM turned earlier Pm trip for commuting purposes. Nobody should have to get up at the time most of our AMs report 
If I can get released around 7 or 8 pm on day 3, it’s usually a perfect trip. It’s the 2200-0100 release that adds an extra commute day for me

Glad that works for you. When I commuted it involved catching a train or an Uber over to the big boy airport (ORD, DFW, IAH) and hitching a ride on AA to the town I lived in. I would need to be back in base by around 6 pm to have more than one shot at a commute home.
