On the plus side, I’ve only had one SC so far, and I’m sitting in LOS on an 85 hour layover right now, where we can’t leave the hotel. 😏Thankfully the entire crew is a lot of fun.
Thanks! What would a mid-level FO get for days off if he was a line-holder? I suppose once staffing gets fixed reserve there would be a better deal. I noticed the 777 DCA was only doing a couple flights. Those crews being put elsewhere like EWR to cover or just hanging out at home?
Seems like 320 DCA looks pretty good save the co-basing coverage.
