The key is figuring out what works best for you in your situation
Wether it's rsv, Cdo, cno or line.
At regionals we never real never have leverage.
We as a company can be replaced by another regional or mainline
We have to keep our costs just below The cost and expense and PIA
Of replacing us whatever that may be.
Funny how Southwest can make things work where EVERY pilot (reserve or line holder) starts out with the same (15 or 16, not 11) amount of days off (course they aren't ALPA and fly one aircraft ty... oh well we are 1 for 2)
I'm sure you realize that choice is made despite some of our inputs into PBS... this time of year, I'd take the crappiest of crap lines, if I could still hold them.... Yes in winter, I'd have some other things to consider which might influence me to take a reserve line for specific days off... again if I actually had that option.
