I think you are reading the round 2 bid package incorrectly. ORD has 8 relief lines for the March bid, the 8th person to bid on ORD phase 2 bid was hired 8/19. IAH has 10 relief lines, 10th person on the IAH phase 2 bid was hired 8/26. Assuming 4 months for Training and OE that would be 3 months on reserve. The lines marked RSV, R1, R2, R4 are reserve on-call schedules and availability periods.

8 months from my actual starting date to hold a hard line in IAH on the 145.

My mistake. You are correct. I was looking at it wrong.

Which domicile are you referring to?
KIAH seems to be the busiest

If that’s where most new hires are going, then yes, IAH.

There are plenty of 175 ORD lineholders who are going to come to IAH when they can hold a line there. A new hire has no realistic hope of touching a 175 line in IAH until more planes come our way.


shoot I held a line 2 months on 175 in IAH

When was this? Or rather when were you hired/finished with training.

Is there anyway to tell reserve times by looking at the lines vs number of pilots on the roster?


All times are GMT -8. The time now is 12:12 AM.
