Longest you’ll see after a couple months and not being on the bottom of the reserve list is a 3 hour call out. Everything else is airport appreciation time.

I saw that TSA has been offering a $45K bonus to NHs. Still can’t fill classes. Nobody wants to be stuck at a commuter airline. Seems NHs have wised up to bonus schemes. They are more attentive to QOL, Rsv rules, base options, pay rate/soft pay, Flow/CPP/DGI programs.

It's bad for commuters. It really is terrible. If you live in base then I think it's better than the best lines that we have right now. Especially if you are senior. Bid for a CDO and your first day back you get a late start and early finish plus you get about 30 hours at home before you know you have to go back in. Follow it up with a two day or a three day get done early on the last day. It's also likely you won't get called out off a RAP. Turn backs are rare but they are on the rise now. Time away from base is still half or a third of what line holders get plus I credit 90-95 a month.

He asked about LGA reserve not DFW, LGA doesn’t have any CDO lines

Well, the topic kinda ended up on the state of Envoy reserve. Regardless reserve isn't that bad if you live in base and we are staffed appropriately. If you commute and/or we are short staffed then reserve is brutal.

I hear you, just making sure the guy when asked knew the difference between the bases. Otherwise I agree with you

Searched the existing threads and haven't really found a straight and/or current answer to reserve times. How long would you expect to be sitting reserve as a new FO? How long to hold a line for:

LGA 145
DFW 145
DFW 175

Most senior reserve FO’s as of today that couldn’t hold a line (ie not deliberately bidding reserve);

LGA 145 - DOH - 11/06/17
DFW 145 - DOH 05/08/17
DFW 175 - DOH 04/25/16
