Just because you are based in DFW doesn't mean you live there.
Couple years ago when I was DFW based and commuting they got me a hotel for my recurrents. I just had to call the training department and request a hotel. Not sure if they changed it or if it’s different for long term now.

That's the point, they will give you a hotel bit not per diem since your technically based here.

Dont get me wrong the hotel is nice but that's a lot of money you're leaving on the table with the missing perdiem.

It’s 24 hours a day of Perdiem. Only new hires get the 16 hours.

Base transfers seems to be the movement I see many doing. Once the way around is figured out, the masses follow.

I saw a lot of DFW guys bid ORD, then base transfer after training back to DFW. Slight inconvenience but money should not be left on the table.

Wow, so no per diem for DFW based. I guess one would have to base transfer BEFORE the upgrade bid to make that work?

How about the sims? I guess DFW guys try to get the HOU sims. How are sims assigned?

lmao

I wonder if they let those guys in training get 145 DFW specifically to screw them out of per diem.

It's pretty obvious they're dumping unwanted NH FO's on 145 ORD instead of LGA to avoid buying them 3 months of hotels, so it's not totally farfetched.

Did you look at the line projections from RW’s email?

LGA is decreasing lines and ORD and DFW increasing lines on the 145.

Company is almost entirely focused on keeping schedule integrity, as such it’s obvious they are frontloading new hires based off line projections and info from AA flight file.

Yeah this is clearly the reason for the 145 ORD moves. They want to keep schedule integrity up so we can keep getting more and more flying from AA.

I just wonder if PDT will be able to take more airframes. They’re struggling to staff the ones they currently have. I wouldn’t be surprised if it takes them much longer to accept more aircraft off us as we take the TSA planes back.

AA isn’t going to send airframes somewhere to just sit around idle. I wouldn’t be surprised if we end up doing a bunch of the extra flying for a while longer until PDT catches up.
