The 8 days he is talking about is referring to the hard limit. They can junior man you down to 8 days off. However any day below 11 a return day is owed by the end of the following month or a 3.9 hour payout if 60k isn't enough for you. As new hires come online the junior man's will drop. They got behind the power curve before offering the bonuses so it is a bit painful now, but it will get better. Everyone knew this was going to happen except the old American President or he just didn't care.

We also have 50 FOs in training right now for ORD 145. So reserve time in ORD will drop as well as DFW.
Those 50 FOs is pretty close to the amount of reserves in ORD on the 145 so reserve time could drop to something like 3 or 4 months. It could be quicker because senior FOs will continue to bid reserve because it's much less work than line flying.

So people worried about reserve time shouldn't be too concerned in my opinion. Also there's about 60 145 ORD FOs going for upgrade or moving to NYC within the next few months so the whole current reserve list would have the opportunity to hold a line if they want.

3rd. Reserve sucks, but I bid reserve to avoid the 4 on 2 off BS. I commute and these schedules are causing problems at home.

12 more get BT to DFW on 02DEC. That along with the 8 we just got from the school house plus about 5-7 more still finishing up IOE/sims is going to help DFW drop reserve time as well.

Finally some movement!

Not to mention the upgrades ... 30 NOV, 20 DEC, and 40 in JAN!!!!

Interested in seeing the next vacancy bid.
