Is it easy to commute? Will I have more than one day off at a time that it would be worth flying home? Any info is appreciated.
-Thanks
Oh my! .........Minimum 11 days off. Dulles is very junior for crj FO's and I'm sure they will be more than happy to put you there. It all depends on if you are reserve or line holder and or how you bid.
Things to consider:
Commutair (EWR Base, IAD base, Flow, pay, contract)
Piedmont (PHL Base, Flow, Pay, Contract)
Shuttle America/Republic (EWR Base, Pay, LGA base)
Endeavor (PAY!!, Flow, contract, NYC basing)
Do yourself a favor. Add up your logbook, shave your face, dry clean your suit, read up on some previous interviews and go interview with one of them. Suck it up, don't be a lazy slob. Go to a place that will actually make an effort to get you somewhere in life and quite possibly compensate you for your efforts.
