Thanks, this is the correct guidance. Either way, the unable to commute policy from DFW for a new hire is treacherous. I don't know how westbound fares, but the ATL and NYC guys I speak with all mention how hard it can be to get a ride mainline. In addition, all the DFW-NYC mainline traffic is DCI, so no reserving the JS. A new hire will have a VERY hard time hitching a ride on an RJ.

I checked both my tablet and online, the version of the FOM I listed is correct.

EDIT: NM, I see you responded above. Missed it when I quoted.
