Other/my experiences- Health insurance is company provided for 90 days. After, you have the option of paying for it via a monthly check - same amount normally payroll deducted. They mail you a bill.

JS on FDX - you boarding pass does not have your picture and is replaced with a banner that says “NOT COCKPIT ELIGIBLE”. This is because you are removed from CASS. This caused anxiety on many crewmembers even though I was listed on the release. One FO thought I was testing security protocols - really dug into the FOM.

Removal from CASS also kills KCM privilege.

5 year USERRA limit is being tracked. Beware if doing long orders that are not “excepted or contingency”.

My two cents. Thanks for your service. Good luck and God speed.
