TL;DR the unproductive regional pilot schedules are now coming to mainline. ENJOY!

Exactly, and they’ll be lucky to fly that single morning flight at a profit but what choice do they have.

not necessarily less productive. The 737/320 will go somewhere else and not sit in hub.

but likely more 4 day trips with lots of overnights in less desirable locations. Current 320 schedules on steroids

Whether it will go with that same crew or not, we don't really know... we doubt it will.

Expect a lot more min-rest overnights in the desirable locations and longer layovers in the less desirable locations too, due to lower frequency to the latter.

As do I. Just make sure to negotiate accordingly with management to punish them financially for schedule inefficiency.

Exactly. We are going to fly 2 to 3 times the total hours in our careers vs 30 yrs ago due to weakened work rules and more capable airplanes. We shouldn't be giving up work rules or helping the company work us harder. Enough.
