Garbage trip is a 5 day trip with 20 legs and a 29-30 hour layover @ KLFT. BTW that 30 hour begins at midnight and van pickup is 0430 for 3 of the 5 days. Then there's the infamous NYC 717 dayover 1 day trip. That was a 0600 departure from KEWR, 1 leg to KATL, 12-13 hour dayover, 1 leg back to KEWR. Paid 5:15 and blocked in right around midnight. Have fun with that if your crash pad is in Kew Gardens.
Sorry, the ER can't touch the NB for garbage trips.

Put down the crack pipe. They certainly have not gotten rid of them. I've flown the redeye to day sleep to evening departure multiple times over the past 6 months. They are rampant in slc and lax

Did those for years on the 75. I'd much rather day sleep, then go back to a west coast layover and reset the body than have the 0600 east coast departure 24 hours later. I could never sleep that night after my post all-nighter nap. One man's trash....

Read his post again. Mike was referring to the NYC-717 base/category having the ATL-dayover rotation.
How 'bout you "put down the crack-pipe" and open a reading-comprehension book.

When I was a new hire one of my new hire compatriots on the NYC 717 made a pretty big mistake on his 1st month ever bidding. Thinking he was probably going to be stuck on reserve, he bid a quickie line that had nothing in it other than 'award trip if layover city is Atlanta'. He got 13 of those dayovers in 1 month
