SWA Reserve has been good for me so far. I've been doing it for almost 2 months now. Here's some of the details for SWA...


- It's typically (3 on 4 off) or (4 on 3 off) depending on what you want and what your seniority will hold.

- Most Reserve Lines for the month guarantee about 90-96 trips, which equates to about $4400 for the month for a 1st year F/O.

- I bid PM Reserve and my time of eligibility is typically late AM to just after Midnight.

- SWA is really good about using the Reserves AND giving you ample time to know what your trip is (typically 12+ hours notice).

- If you weren't given ample notice to the trip, then 2 hours is the contract for when you have to report in after they call you.
