Hopefully more three and four day trips start showing back up.Okay so the trips go through the hubs. Cool. Now do TAFB.

Um, he did? He said turns will have me TAFB 7-8 hrs. Sounds about right.
I'm not fully 121 lingual yet!

Without a doubt it isn’t the standard; but it’s worth mentioning that pax and freight have that option that pays well and TAFB isn’t excessive.Congrats, but that isn't the norm.
If PDX opened as a base would you do turn lines?Sadly it's becoming the norm where I work. In Vegas 271 out of 426 pairings for January are turns.
Maybe? I might do a few. But I signed up for this job because I don't want to drive to work everyday.If PDX opened as a base would you do turn lines?
Turns are basically like day trips. Base-XXX-Base. It’s about as unicorn as you can get for this job. It becomes a regular day job. Out at 8am, home by 6pm kinda thing. Some of them can be 6-7+ hrs and you only have to do 10 or 11 for the month to meet guarantee. 19-21 days off can be had. At our shop, the most day off lines are typically high credit turn lines.

Hahaha. If I am home for a few days my wife asks when I am going back to work. Other than that, I just rather do the three or four day trips.Weird. Those years when I could do that were the best of my airline career. You have a wife or kids at home that you hate or something?
I hate 4 days and *cringe* there are some 5 days here. But I think we need variety to suit everyone's tastes - different strokes for different folks
Eskimo crews largely distrust each other and it’s quite rare where anyone wants to meet up for fun.
