If in a reserve block they call you, can it be a consecutive day trip, or covering legs during that reserve block of 12 hrs?
Im thinking if u are assigned x number of "reserve blocks" and they can use you for consecutive day trips by calling u during reserve 12 he block, time away from home could spiral out of control.
Thanks, very rudementrary understanding of airline schedules.
Depends how many days in a row you're on reserve. If you have a 4 day block of reserve, they could call you in for anything from a turn to a 4 day trip.
With DTW being a junior base, you shouldn't be on reserve too long and then you can bid for whatever you want (like locals). With that said, if you don't want to spent time away from home taking an airline job may not be the best path.
