Reserve Time as FO
 

Hey just wanted to know what to expect for reserve time at the IAH base. I am being told 6 months to a year and wanted to know if that differs from anyone who has been hired within the past 6 months or so. Maybe even if mention what you were told when you got hired and what time you actually spent on reserve. Thanks, I appreciate all feedback.

something tells me IAH, on the 145, reserve times wont be all that bad. Also, I’d imagine you’ll still fly a lot even on reserve

3-4 months on the 145. 6-9 months on the 175 IAH

Reserve Time as FO
 

About right in the 145. Add 12 or so to the 175 lol

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.

Don’t mean to hijack the thread but why are half the lines out of IAH worth 74 hrs. Is it a oh here’s what United gave, or the company stretching lines thin to make as many as they can happy?

Did you get the email from the Union today. Those were the best lines the ALPA line builders could come up with.

I did 2 weeks on reserve in September after OE then got a relief line in Oct/Nov and real line Dec on.... (I’m on the 145)

which base? curious about the reserve situation on 145 at ORD

As of this month. 2 months to hold a line in IAH E145

Jr relief line holder for March was hired 11/4. Assuming 3 months of training and OE sounds like he did 1 month of reserve.
