Assuming it's in the US or Europe, Mon-Fri gives me about 3 useful days, once you take out the time I lose to jet lag. That's barely worth the 48 hours or so I spent in transit last time.

I would strongly prefer not to reduce the length of the mid-cycle. I agree that it can be quite draining but reducing the length would make it much more draining for me. 

I'd feel different if it was hosted somewhere localish to me, and I think it's reasonable that we plan the mid-cycle around what works for the majority of attendees rather than the minority. But even so, my personal preference is for a full week.
