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.

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.

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.
