How is Alaska from a pilot standpoint? has it been good for the most? I live in SD to LAX base would be ideal for me how junior is the base?
I want to know what's the deal with reserve and how long should I expect to sit on reserve? Also, while on reserve is it possible to break guarantee?
Any inside info to help me make a decision is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Breaking guarantee is sorta base dependent. I hear from guys in LAX that they barely fly and guys in SEA that they are in the mid to upper 80’s every month. The nice thing is that our short call guarantee is 79 hrs (am I right that Atlas is 65??) and once you’ve hit it you can call out sick and are not charged sick time.
