  1. Hmm. I didn’t realize our duty day is about to change. From the examples we’re gonna fly these trips. But it’s over duty? I thought the 4k turns only! By itself…. Not a part of the sequence. What gives?

    • In order for bases that do not have destinations that qualify for the 4K turn to have access to these high time turns, a minimum of 10% of such turns would need to be built into multi-day sequences for all bases to benefit from the higher time pairings under the 4K provision. All of the rules apply to bidding whether the 4K is a turn or built into a multi-day. You will not have to fly any of these sequences if you do not bid for them. Hope that explains the multi-day trips that contain a 4K sequence.

  2. Sweet ! I have a feeling peeps will be dulling it it to get these high time pairings ! 30 TFP for a four day ! 20 for a three day 🙂 a commuters dream ! At turn worth 10 whoop ! Whoop ! Bring it 🙂
