All of the above and some five day trips.

5 days wow.. How about days off in between? I come from a 121 carrier that majority of the trips have 3 days off in between some 4. Also do they have any sort of trip trading system?

5 days work well for commuters. And a lot of times you get as much credit working three 5 day trips as you do working four 4 day trips. Score an extra day off, but gone from home for longer stretch. Good for some folks.

Looks like I spoke to soon. Seems as if the window is closed again, unless I just not seeing it. Anyone else?

I'm based in DEN but live in Chicago. How do I get an ORD parking pass? Where do we park there? Is there a shuttle to take us from employee parking to the terminal?

Yes, CP office for pass and paperwork. Shuttle every 20 min between employee lot and all terminals. Works well, but bring your hemorrhoid donut- worst buses ever! AMC lot is East side cargo area off of Manheim.

No brand specified.

Specs: (verbatim from F9)

Lithium back-up batteries must not exceed 300 watt-hours (Wh) as limited by DOT regulations for carriage in air travel. Most rechargeable lithium batteries marketed to consumers are well below 100Wh. To calculate the number of watt-hours a battery provides, divide the milliamp hour (mAh) by 1000 and multiply the amount of voltage (V)(e.g., 5400mAh/1000 x 11.1V = 60Wh).

Lots of guys use something like this: Anker
