Last question (for now) is what's the minimum reserve rotation in terms of days on? Could I go as low as 4 on at a time, understanding that would increase my commuting a lot.
Lots of E190 hiring in the past 2 years, so some are just coming off their serat locks. I doubt many of them will be jumping ship unless they live in a base city like LGB/FLL. I dont think it will be a mass exodus. There is probably more chance of E190 FOs leaving from the top end to upgrade to A320/E190 CA spots.

Minimum days in a row is 3, but if you want a chance at Long Call (14hrs) or an early release on your last day then you have to work at least a 4-day stretch of days.
