The few times I did it, the run originated and ended in DFW (with a stop in OKC I think). I think the only out stationed runs out there are the 99 runs.
 
DFW-ICT-DFW is covered by reserve pilots in DFW. Nobody is really assigned the run per say but you could be flying it for weeks on end if you ask for it...or not. Layover in ICT at the hotel and get your 9 hours rest in DFW every night with weekends in DFW.

The other DHL run is a 1900 and goes DFW-TUL-ASG (layover) -TUL-DFW. This run swaps pilots every other day because it arrives to DFW later and they cannot get 9 hours rest.
 
Apparently they aren't willing to trade me out of one junior base into another junior base (where new hires are going) while staying the 99. Either I upgrade, or wait until a bid comes out. Makes total sense.

Put a standing bid in and threaten to quit if you don't get what you want. There is no reason a person on the seniority list can't get a base in an airplane he's in, when new hires are getting it. If they keep sending new hires there, there never will be an open bid for it.

Where are you based now Beech? Could just be a matter of replacing you in your current base. Also it's not like they are constantly hiring into SLC. They might have filled up the base and just don't need people there currently.

That sounds about right. Especially because they recently moved someone from a DFW outstation to an OMA outstation at their request a few weeks after she started asking and after a month online.
 
Anyone know which Brasilia runs are the longest, and a decent QOL?

AMF has Bro's in: Burbank, Phoenix, Cinci, Miami, and Aguadilla. Is that it?
 
No Bro in Burbank, Aguadilla and Miami have the longest runs. Aguadilla gave you about 4-4.5 block when you flew Miami edges it out by .1 I think.

I think QOL is about the same for both bases, if you can get over it being PR. I did Agualdilla; show times where 830-930 and you're normally back at home by 8pm. Only issue is when you're away your out of the country but both the layovers are really nice though. VIP lounges and Hotels. I think Aguadilla may get a new run as well.
