Yes, but RSV at SKW is a special kind of torture. Expect to be used heavily, and sent to sit OBR (Out of Base Reserve) if you're not flying. Management hates to have reserves sitting around "unused", so if your idea of a good time is a 5-day sit in a crappy hotel in MSP without actually touching an airplane, reserve is for you!

Bid period is 10th-15th, results of bids usually published on the 18th.

12, as of next year. Currently it's 11.

Long and short-call reserve. Long call is 12 hours, short call is a 2 hr callout.

Yes. Super senior guys (top 5% in base, it will take you 20-30 years to get there as a CA) are able to bid down to a min of 59 credit hours, which can be achieved by working 10 days a month. Realistically -- you will be working 18 days/month.

We have LAX-SBA, SFO-SMF, and we had SFO-STS until UA pulled out of STS. About 20 minutes' air time.

I've done West Coast to OKC, ORD to YVR...think the longest single flight I've done was over 4:00 block.

Typically 5 legs, that's often about a 14 hr duty day.

Yes. Most of the CA guys are covering DEN flying though, so you'll see A LOT of DEN and the Midwest. You won't often make it out East if you have a line, unless that's where you want to go and you can hold those trips.

But on reserve, you'll be sent to sit wherever they need you, even if that's in a hotel room in DTW or ATL for 5 straight days. I did a month of reserve in IAH and flew once, yes once. Rest of the time was Airport Appreciation (Ready reserve, which is still a thing -- you have to be within 20 minutes of the gate), or sitting around the hotel surfing the Internet.
