I don't quite know the answer, but I've seen mentions of that depending on when your reserve period starts.

That was negotiated in the last LOA. You have to coordinate with crew scheduling, but the new provision allows for you to commute during the call out period of your first day of reserve. You just need to be ready to go once you hit the airport if they need you for a flight.

The way I read that is on day 1 of reserve I am allowed to commute on that day. Can anyone confirm or deny? I've been through the contract and am having a hard time finding the reference.

Cheers.

You basically get to use your callout time (1:45 all bases other than NYC, NYC is 2:00) to commute in...so basically if your reserve period starts at 10:00 AM and you are commuting to NYC you can coordinate an arrival that gets you in by 12:00. Like someone else said you just have to be ready to head to a flight after you hit the ground if they need you

What are the ramifications if you don't get on that flight that arrives by 12? Especially during your probationary year. Say you tried for the flight that arrives at 10 and 12, are you covered by calling in saying you've tried twice?

It's kind of weird for me because if I want to commute in the first morning I have to two leg it as my first option. I feel like it increases the risk of a miscommute (2 flights to get delayed, break down, etc.) especially since the 2nd option is a nonstop Endeavor flight usually with good loads.

I wouldn't mind if they revisited our commuter clause in the near future.

According to the latest Flight Ops Update. "Both the CRJ 900 and CRJ 200 initial qualification programs have fully transitioned to AQP along with the Continuing Qualification programs for both fleets. We are continuing to move forward with bringing our Upgrade and Differences training under AQP and we hope to have both of these transitioned by mid-year."
