On a busy tour like this are you standing by to stand by at the airport or are you chillin at the hotel pool most of the time?

About half & half. When we break the jet it sometimes takes them hours to release us to the hotel. I broke in Sun Valley, ID the other day but by the time we reached the hotel is was too late to enjoy any snow sports. The next day they put us on standby at the hotel early then wound up airlining us out rather than wait for the jet to be fixed. Other days this trip I was at the hotel by mid-afternoon so had time to go out on the town if I wanted to.
I'm on day 6 of 7 now and have a total of 3 legs flown. Looks like I'll just airline home tomorrow since we turned our jet in for scheduled MX.

Do they actually tell you that you are released until tomorrow at XXXX time, so then you have time to go get an adult beverage?

What fleet goes where?

Like the other guys said, it varies. Lately I've been doing east coast....

White Plains/Teterborough to wherever in Florida. If I get a trip out of White Plains to Carribian it breaks down! (4 trips, broke everytime)

I haven't been able to get to the islands to save my ass!!!

HAven't been west of the rockies for weeks (for Netjets)

Thats half the fun of it! I pack my winter coat if I wanna go to Flrida, and my swimming trunks if I wanna go to Buffalo or Deluth. (Just kidding, make sure you pack for duty from Buffalo to Bagdad!)

If you have more than 12 hours, yes.
