JFK is short now for Captains and critically short for FO's. The last trip I flew both FO's were from Atlanta dead headed up to cover the flight. Its becoming the norm to have at least one FO from Atlanta. Overtime flying for CA can be had at will. You pop a request into the computer and your phone rings a few hours later.

I am glad to hear that. I am debating to bid up there on the next AE.

What kind of line could you hold?

Not bad. I can do either two six days or back up three days so that the commute would only be twice a month. I would not have to do a lot of the two man flying.

Wow, six days. Where do you go? Africa flying?

Africa is typically 8-9 day trips. 6 day trips are typical CVG flying... JFK-FRA-CVG-FRA-JFK.

Oh, okay. So how do they get around the 6/7 rule with 8-9day trips. just curious, thx in advance.

Most international trips have at least 1, 24 hour plus overnight.

International trips don't have to worry about the 30 hours in 7 day rule if that is what you are asking about.

ACL don't bid up to NYC, I think you would bump me down then on the Category List. (Jul Hire) Life's good hundred and forty from the bottom.

Whatever you guys are thinking, DON'T BID INTO NYC !!!

IT REALLY REALLY REALLY SUCKS HERE! :rolleyes:
