I agree this trip sucks for whoever gets it. But, it is a one time thing, not as if they are doing this weekly.

Delta marketing is to blame for this not ASA crew planning, yes ASA builds the pairings but they dont set the schedules, obviously RAP does not have daily service to support a better pairing.

Dont get me wrong, ASA has big big problems, but 50hrs in RAP is better than 50hrs in MEI, LFT, etc..

Medeco,
RAP-SLC opertates 3 times a day. The problem is that ASA doesn't operate on Sunday so rather than DHD crews on Skywest they make us sit in RAP for the weekend. Easy to see why we need min days.

They could easily DHD a crew out the next day and DHD a crew in to cover the Monday flight. They choose not to do that. They would rather keep a crew in the hotel for over two days than pay 1.75 DHD each way.
 
Hmmm two things to do come to mind....

1) The better one....Get a case of beer and see how much you can drink in 24hrs....then you still have over 24 hrs to sober up....very legal. And fun if F/A is cute...after 24 beers she will be anyway...

or 2) Commute home.....And get paid per diem
 
And remember that it's always better to have 24 beers and 1 flight attendant than 24 flight attendants and only 1 beer!!

This is an ASA pairing...... but a case of beer will take care of that.
