CDO / high speeds / stand ups at SWA
#1
Hi guys,
Does SWA do CDO / high speed / stand up trips where you take the last flight out, sleep and then do the first flight back to the hub the next day, all within the same duty period?
If so, how are the trips built? Are they ever built into a longer pairing? Does it pay 2 days (or duty periods)? Is there any override for this kind of trip? Any other contractual protection?
Thanks

As Timmay said, “nope”.
We have 1day, 2day, 3day and 4day trips. The majority are 3days, and all are built into either AM’s (start early and finish early) or PM’s (start later and finish later). We bid for an AM line or PM line

OTH, we taxi at V1 like we’re rushing to the hotel for a five hour rest, even if we’re 20 early and the gate’s occupied.
On a more serious note, I do like the trip mixes and the am/pm philosophy. But the ams seem to be getting earlier, the later and the days longer, probably because of the max situation.

Awesome, let's turn the thread into a let's hate ourselves group. Trendy but boring.

I have no idea if SWA looks at this with their FOQA program.
