If the RDU base doesn't happen, I'm curious how often you guys typically overnight in Raleigh. Also, what are the different kinds of reserve at 9E (LCR, SCR, etc.). I'd be coming from RDU and I have a family, so looking at how difficult the commute would be for me (I'm assuming NYC but maybe ATL if that happens).

We have short call and airport reserve. No long call. We are currently testing no ready reserve in JKF/LGA on the 900. I know 900 does have Raleigh overnight. Not sure about the 200. I would plan on being based in NYC at least while you are reserve.

Curious, if you live in RDU then why not Gojet? I know the rumors etc but commuting sucks

Hadn't heard that SKW is "getting your 200s". Have heard that SKW is getting rid of something like 76 200s, and something like 49 of those are currently at ASA. Could be off by a few airframes, but that was the jist of what I read.

But I'd rather have us get them, than skywest or gojet. The same with you guys getting out -200's; I'd rather have you guys have them, than skywest getting them all, which they are getting some.

Thanks for the info. As to the GoJet question, I'm open to opinions here (which I know I can count on!) and I'm certainly considering it. I do know about all the rumors but I also have a couple of good friends there (actually one has moved on already) who say it's not nearly as bad as you read here. I've read over and over "Don't commute for a regional if you don't have to" but also "Don't go to GoJet." So it's a bit of a dilemma for me.

Is that not the case, or was someone making BS up when talking about it?
Talking to the grievance committee in the past they stated that the exception was allowed when the two flights are scheduled on the same aircraft. The company can do a swap for operational needs and no violation.

I've commuted for 8 yrs most of the time two legs and two time zones. I would never move for a regional. Bases change and seniority changes. Yes it can be a challenge but where you call home is more important to me. Raleigh to NY that's a breeze of a commute compared to mine or many others. Right now Endeavor is heads and shoulders above Go Jet especially in the job security department. Do your homework.

Yep, I figured it was a fairly easy commute, and I have done my homework as much as I can, hence the reason I'm inquiring about 9E. If I could get some overnights in RDU that'd make commuting even easier. Thanks for the response.
