The thing that attracts me the most is that the reserve times here seem to be low, and ORD is a super easy commute for me. At my other regional , il get put in New York and Chicago is super senior. The bonus is a nice addition too. But I'm still concerned for the future regarding upgrades. If I have to wait 3 years to upgrade that is fine but 5 years is a little excessive.
Some more questions.
- How are company hotels? Decent?
- I didn't get to see the training center which kind of was disappointing , so I have no clue about the facility , everything decent there?
- Are we paid durin CPT? What's training pay? Reserve gaurentee with per diem 24/7?
Thanks
The last FO on the April seniority list was around 90% on the July list. There might be another regional that gets you 10% up the list in 3 months, but its not going to be a place you want to be.
New FOs are sitting reserve for 2-3 months.
