Crews have been stuck on the plane >24 hrs when something breaks. Probably some type of hotel-room confinement for crews on layovers and 2-3 week quarantines for pax for quite awhile when it does return.
Seems like both the 777 and 787 provide similar schedules on WB reserve from what I gather. Someone wrote earlier that when most of the international travel restrictions are lifted some NB CAs might come back to WB FO and making these unfilled vacancies disappear...but making more NB CA positions available. So I guess it all works itself out.
Pay-wise, do you think the next contract will allow reserve folks to pick up stuff on their days off for any type of premium? Or do you think the status quo will remain? Looks like one could easily be 10+ years on reserve so just wondering.
Not before their 2 year seat lock expires. At current hiring rates, we’ll have another 2,000 pilots and another 1500 retirements or so.
