Given bid sheets at BBQ the night before training-says "not mandatory" but I suggest you go! Breaks varied. Christmas was a motivator- going right through ended just before the 25th. Those with little kids tended to bid this. Rest are home for Thanksgiving. My motivator was three less weeks to commute to JFK in winter. Granted it's training pay but it's still a raise from first year regional reserve pay so a win-win in my book. Had to check out of hotel. Jetblue cities given a ticket, others had to jumpseat home. That was a little dicey because in some cases CASS didn't clear until the morning of departure.
