Great info thanks Dominican.....

That new commuting policy seems like a better deal for the USA guys.. (I'm sure there was a cost though....airlines don't usually improve the lives of the pilots withjout taking something in return!)

I know a guy who commutes from the East Coast (US)...He normally would leave on a Monday to start a trip on Wed. Basically losing a day or two at home. So now he gets to leave on Wed. That is better for him I would think...

18 days away and 12 at home is a bit more acceptable than 21-22 days away and 8-9 at home..... I did the 121 thing for about 5 years, but there is a huge difference being gone 4-5 days vs. 18-20...That's the only part I'm trying to wrap my head around....

I've got 7000+ and have been in some form of turbine for the last 11 years so hopefully that will be something they might take a look at?

Thanks again
