For that matter, I'm sure the crew desk will continue to build short calls just because they can, and you get paid more on reserve.....if you live in domicile, reserve just became the best thing at UAL.
Because you if you don’t live in base and want to be paid 50 hrs and also NOT have to be tied to your phone. With all these open non rev seats.... take a trip. Lots of things you can do that you can’t do while on reserve.
