Thanks for the analysis on the lost reserve overnight hotel issue. I’ve read the contract backwards and forwards but had no idea about this, God willing I’ll be off reserve soon but I’m sure this knowledge will help others.

Wish there was a in base contact list or IM system like some other carriers have that allow IM or contact of another Rsv/line pilot in base. Would make this Rsv Swap, Rsv Appropriation + other aspects of our LOAs and Rsv rules more effectively used.
Just some better outreach tool amongst pilots than @aa.com which doesn’t work well for quick responses. QT was nice but took a while for me to even get a response.

Upgraded to captain on the 145 ORD. Im off IOE and i see some people who are like a year senior to me still on reserve, Im thinking DFW must be an even longer wait to be a line holder. That being said, does anyone know how to figure out who the most junior line holder is in DFW and ORD?
i tried 3xp in decs and kinda looking at the reserve list looking for that gap of those who purposely bid reserve and those who fly a bunch.
Thanks!
