3 day trips

[aeropharoh]

how many 3 day trips does your airline have? what % of the pilots can hold more than 15 days off.

You and your 3 day trips. You whinny little baby, why don't you go cry to momma. It takes a man to do four days and like it. Guess we know what you are.

I guess you can count me out. Four trips are one day too long.

ASA doesn't have enough. I think around 50 3 day lines this last bid out of 338 lines on the 50 seater.

I don't know where you work so this could be old news to ya.

You're bitching about 3 day trips? Most of the lineholders here have 4 day trips all month. I thought 3 day trips were short.

 

[aeropharoh]

Im at asa and well aware of the SH 4-day is the most efficient trip speech, just curious as to how others stacked up to us.

You mean not everyone does 4 leg locals?

Overnights??? uke:

Whiny Bitch!

I may be a whiny little bitch, but I love 3days. I was able to hold them for a long time-all the way until SH showed up. What a sorry excuse for a manager.

3 day trips are a thing of the past. For almost every airline in the industry. The only way anyone is going to see them again is if they are negotiated for, period. Since 4 days are more efficient--in today's economy especially--management is not going to wave the wand and magically give everyone 3 on 4 off.

This maybe true if your a hub and spoke guy, but for us point to point guys three day trips are more common and very efficient.

gimme my out and backs. A 2day is almost too long...

 

[aeropharoh]

seems like the airplane could be on any kind of rotation with a hub and spoke. the crew could be on a 3 day, day line or 2 day all of which would save the company $$ and make crews happy while the a/c is on a 4,5, or 9 day rotation for that matter

At Pinnacle, for the month of April, we had no 4-day trips. It was highspeeds, 1, 2, and 3 day trips. No 4 days.

Sound good?

Nope, most pilots got hosed over and got two, 3-day trips back-to-back.


Now for May, we are back to the way it was before... highspeeds, 1, 2, 3, and 4 day trips.
