These low credit redeyes need to go.

Yes they do!! And my understanding is they want to increase efficiency by building more. We need an override in the next contract... my uniform isn't brown and my paycheck reflects that as well.

Override on top of a better system than we have with the trip averaging nonsense.

And that is why I don't look at the amount of calendar days, just TAFB and commutability. Calendar days means nothing, at least not in LAS with start/end times all over the clock.
Trip A starts with a redeye to FLL leaving at 23:45, jungle turn, and gets done at 00:15 on day 4 with 3 duty periods, so 15hrs credit.
Trip B starts with redeye to IAH that leaves at 01:00 next day, jungle turn, and comes back to at 2300 on day 2 (I know, illegal, 2 check ins in 1 day) 3 duty periods, so 15hrs credit.
Is trip B really two times better than trip A?

Yup, and that's why I wrote that reserve is a whole different ballgame. Once you can hold a line in FLL you'll never fly another day turn in your career if you so please, unless you get canceled and rescheduled into one.

I have a few friends asking me about the DFW base here and I have no clue. I don’t have access to that info yet on Flica. Can anyone shed some light on DFW? All I know is that someone shouldn’t come to Spirit for it, but that person didn’t give me anymore info/context.

The Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex, officially designated Dallas–Fort Worth–Arlington by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget, is a conurbated metropolitan statistical area in the U.S. state of Texas encompassing 11 counties and anchored by the major cities of Dallas and Fort Worth

There ya go. Your friends should be all caught up with DFW. Maybe a little more clarity on the info you want will help with speculation on the base

it’s shrinking by around 60 captains and 15 FO’s on the big reshuffle bid next month. Could shrink more in the future, could stay the same, maybe grow? Nobody knows. But after this bid it’ll probably take 8 years or so to home Dfw captain.

Thanks for the info! So, no one should come here for a DFW base?

Reading comprehension isn’t your strong suit is it?
