I have four days of reserve starting today and ending on 7/1. Regular line in July with 7/2 to 7/7 off.

How many days can they fly me into my days off?

As many as they want. Yellow slip accordingly or pick up a short regular trip on the 2nd. What category and how is coverage.

Thanks! I'm on the 88. I was able to snag a 3-day that ends on the 1st with a DH at the end, which I will deviate. Again, 7/1 is my last day of reserve. But here's a newb follow-up question: DH gets back into base on 7/1 at 2000L base time, so I'm on LC until 2359? . . . can they tag me for another trip on my days off during that window of LC?

We have got to fix this. Completely unacceptable to be able to fly you into reg line off days.

After a rotation they have to give you rest which should keep you safe until you roll into your regular line month. Where they usually get people is if you have one or two days of reserve at the end of the month and a regular line the next. They then throw you on a four or five day. Since you have four days of avail and you're flying on your last day of res, you should be ok (unless you get rerouted, but being on a DH doubtful). Good luck!

I'm pretty sure it's 2/3 days max domestic extension. International is different.

I used to use Priceline. Could get a nice hotel near LAX for under a $100. Of course that was a few years ago...

I've enjoyed seeing you in your Pricline commercials!
