Is only one month on Reserve still the case with some of the classes recently? Does DEN or ORD get off Reserve faster?

As far as reserve and commutability, I have only sat 2 months on reserve, one at my own bidding. Otherwise, I've been awarded relief lines. I usually credit around 80 hours (for June I'm just short of 95). I have commuted between DC and both DEN and ORD. I haven't had any problems with either however, ORD is easier and much shorter. One thing to keep in mind, we fly a lot of late flights. This means you are more than likely going to get in after commute flights home (unless you get red eyes). We can aggressive bid when on reserve and drop rsv days.
Compared to my last airline, this place is WAY more flexible in scheduling and QOL is much better.
