Right now at rpa is at least a year on reserve and it’s a year on reserve with little to no flying is the bigger issue. So commuting to just sit in a hotel or crash pad for a week is much worse than a new hire would have at spirit imo. Some people want to get paid to sit around not working. I’d much rather be home if I’m on reserve not being utilized. But I’d much rather go somewhere I’m being utilized and progressing in my career.
