Anybody live in AUS that can comment on the commute to LAX? How easy is it to get to/from?

Also interested in info on the possibility of trip overnights in AUS.

Thx.

I don't live in Austin but looking at today it shows 10 flights, 3 on our own metal which is almost a guarantee that you will get on. Mix in a couple southwest flights and this commute is likely a piece of cake. Also you won't have any trouble getting some AUS overnights once you get some seniority.

We need to link to the other thread...otherwise people will start with a all the same questions again! oh wait....they don't read it anyway!

Whats up w hiring?
can someone give us the low down on interview quality of training and upgrade forcast?

Free Per Diem Calculator - Pilot Per Diem - Flight Attendant Per Diem - Airline Per Diem

Check out that website. Its a free calculator that works great. Go into crewtrac and plug in every overnight for 2015. It will then generate the rates for you and you can either figure out how do to it yourself or take it to your tax professional. The standard deduction is 6,300 for the 2015 tax year. My per diem alone for tax purposes almost took me to the standard rate. Throw in a few other itemized deductions, Union Dues, uniform, job fairs, etc, and you are looking at easily topping the 6,300. I am not a CPA so consult with the proper people.

This was supposed to go in the last thread...not sure how it ended up here. Tapatalk sucks.


Oh I guess the last thread died. Technical difficulties... Tapatalk does suck [emoji34]

Was told recently we are doing 40 a month for the foreseable future. Due to attrition on both FO and CA sides.

Thank you sir. Good to hear.

TSH has 50 orders for the E175-E2, delivery for 2020. Anyone else know about this?
