Is that how many people are waiting to get DFW ahead of me or the number of people who already have DFW FO EMJ? Seems like the whole Sabre thing got completely overlooked in Indoc. We got our sign in info and that was it.
You do not have to do anything further at this point other than verify your bid preferences before a vacancy bid closes. When a vacancy bid is posted, closes, and is subsequently run, a final award will be posted. If you were awarded a different status in said vacancy, your name and next status will appear in the final award. 3U commands show how many crew members are currently holding that status, and where your relative position would be in that status.

Wow! Just confirmed this! Wouldn't have believed this myself if I didn't see it with my own two eyes. We'll see if this was a fluke because of December, but currently reserve time at envoy is less than a month.

Yeah, this is not a good thing. This is a telling example of how absolutely awful our lines are. Because reserve is terrible here, so think about what the lines are like if 50+ FOs would rather do reserve than fly them. This is a new low. Welcome to envoy.

So could someone explain what this schedule would look like? Four on and two off for five rotations? That would be 20 days working and 10 days off. I thought the minimum days off were more than that.

What time do the lines typically start and end? Potentially commutable on either one end or the other depending on your location?

Thanks

Well reserve in Chicago only has about 27 FOs for December. So Get ready for a creative month from the overlords at CS.

DFW 175 guys holding lines after a couple of weeks off IOE. Reserve list is replenished quickly though as a chunk at a time are coming online. 4/3 on, 2/3 off, pretty commutable even for the most junior lines. 85 hours credit. 2-3 legs per day, 4 here and there.

^^^^^This. And it will continue like this indefinitely. With 300 in the pipeline and pool and hiring upwards of 50 per month, you'll continue to see movement. The 2.5/5.5 is real.
