Thanks for the info on bases, I really need something commutable. I don't mind being lowest on the pole for a while if it's commutable and I can get some hours.
Can you pick up flights from other bases if no one else wants them after they've been available for a certain amount of time?
Good luck on the contract, I hope it's good or else I've asked a of questions for nothing.
Oh, privileges on Spirit, Frontier and Allegiant or no?
The only way a senior FO can kick a junior FO out of base is when we close a base. It's called bump and flush.
Republic is not a commuter friendly airline by any means. If you are the most junior pilot you will be on reserve and commuting to reserve is a special kind of hell.
You can pick up open time on your days off out of any base. There is no time restriction.
You can buy ZED fares for yourself and your passriders after 6 months of employment on many airlines. Spirit is not one of them. Neither is Frontier. You yourself can jumpseat on those carriers though.
