Long Call Reserve
 
Anyone on here had it yet? Looking to get it possibly soon out of NYC, would like some feedback on how it’s been.

For NYC, bid last out on a weekdays only schedule if you would like to have the month off... long calls here aren’t getting used as much as other bases. Probably due to the 16+ we have.

I was LCR in March, and I will be LCR in May also. I've been used quite a bit given 4-5 day trips on my LCR days. I have been given the day off on LCR a few days and just stayed at home (which is nice). :cool:

How are you dealing with the “impossible commute?” Call at 8 pm for an 8 am show? I’m legitimately curious how it’s working out.

It hasn't happened to me. I don't think CS would do that to be honest..One time I was assigned 2 deadheads on one of the days, but I did not want to fly to base, then proceed onto the 2 deadheads. It was a weekend schedule, so less flights. I had to fly out very early, and ended up canceling the first deadhead out of base and going on my own from home to meet up with the second deadhead.

Crew scheduling defenitly would do that. I’m LCR and almost all of my calls would have been uncommutable unless I was coming from maybe BOS or DCA

At worst a commuter could delay their arrival into base until the evening of Day 1. If they don’t call at midnight or 1 am on day 1; chill at home during the day and commute up on the second to last option.
