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.

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

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