Are you asking in relation to flying, commuting, etc? Sorry not trying to sound like a smart a** it’s just an open ended question. No international but I’d kill (not literally) for Hawaii as someone who’s beach guy, the crews are great and the trips can be ball busters (not all of them). Seems like the union is constantly working hard to get rid of the 12am starts in ONT and ending in PHL or SDF at 12pm or 1pm after 3 legs. The same for working your way back from the east coast on the last day/night. They’re not all like that though. There’s a fair number of trips with commercials on one or both ends.
I’m 1.5yrs in and can hold day time flying. With that being said it’s not your SWA AM’er/PM’er flying and I find myself not even having the time or energy to get out and run. Think long days and short layovers most of the time. It’s not bad if your ultimate goal is to be up and flying on the front side of the clock. If there’s any specific questions feel free to ask away.

When you say that you have day flying, what hours are you working?
