It sounds like from the CP briefings that they are rejecting 90% of applicants. At that rate, I doubt there is a large number of apps on file.

The whole point of BLI is to take Canadian traffic, PAE seems like local Washington based pax so it's not much of an issue.

Alaska is refusing to say where they'll go from PAE and they only occupy 9 of the current 16 slots available. Somebody else will show up, it's a huge market.

Hi,

Looking to come over from OO. I'm happy to move wherever I'm based and want to work.

Just wondering how many hours a month is achievable for someone willing to work? I'm currently flying 100 block per month and making $5-6k/month. Could I do that there too?

Thank you

Yes but only as a line holder. Reserves in a lot of bases rarely fly more than 15 hours a month. We have an adjustment period that is only available to line holders, where you can pick extra flying including reserve days. Even in an overstaffed base or slow month, line holders have access to all they can eat. We have lots of year 2 FO's here making $10k+ a month with 100 credit. I make more than my buddy at Delta who is on the same year/seat/ac as me on the months that I feel like picking up my credit but I work a little harder than he does to do it since their rates are much higher. The premium pay over 81 hours helps close the gap though. With that being said, growth has slowed here with the fleet transition so you may spend some time on reserve or on a composite line with little opportunity to credit much more than guarantee but if you're willing to move anywhere you'll be a line holder pretty quick somewhere.

You can't on 1st yr pay but you can make more than that on 2nd yr pay. Even on reserve guarantee of 72 hrs you will make more than that on 2nd yr pay.

Reserve for new hires is running about a year. We have Pure lines, Composite lines, then reserve lines. Pure line holders have been running less than 50% in most bases. So it's likely you won't fly much your first year. New hires do get build up lines until they get 100 hours, which is usually their first 2 months on the line.

Second year pay is $96.16 and soon to be $98.56, so everyone on second year pay will be making over $6k a month without even trying. There are plenty of FO's making over $10k and VBD FO's making over $13k a month.
