The trips out of LAX have been descent so far, even being on reserve. No international trips yet but we'll see. The HNL trips are not out and backs, they usually have a 17-28 hr layover. The Asia trips are like flying for a whole different company...the hotels are nicer, the food is 10X better, the layovers are longer, and the ramp agents take care of your luggage and customs paperwork. Typical domestic trips are in the MD-10 and the international stuff is almost always in a MD11. Now the 10-30 are really nice and not that much different than the 11 but the 10-10 are a slow fat pig, what a waste of money IMHO.
I have been commuting out of LAS and Southwest has become my new best friend, Am West is also available but a distant second. I actually drove this last time and it was 4 hrs door-door from my house. I wouldn't want to do it all the time but on occasion isn't too bad. NOV and DEC are not normal months at FedEx due to the hollidays so we will see what happens after the first of the year when things get back to normal.
Cheers!
