What's happening at Horizon and Jets?

As far as flying the average line credit is 75-83 per month usually and in the busy months you can pickup almost as much as you want/part 117 will allow.

I don't care that person was hired, good for them, and I really mean that. The reason I brought it up was that QX pilots have been hearing one thing out of Alaska's management's mouth and seeing vastly different results. But I will give them this, I thought during this hiring wave that there was no chance in hell they would honor their 30% hiring. They have taken over 70 pilots in a short amount of time, but I won't pretend that they had no other choice in this hiring environment.

Reserve flying is hit or miss, mostly miss. Averaging 20-30 hours a month.

It took you one year to hold a line?

It also took me 9 months just to get awarded SEA in the first place, then sat airport reserve for 2 months. If you want SEA, fly the jet.

11 months is a lot to be sitting on reserve. So on reserve all you get is minimum guarantee?
how much have you flown so far?

I’ve flown 300 hours here. Reserve is 4 hours of credit per day unless you get assigned a lot of flying. So if you fly 5 hours on a reserve day you’ll get paid 5.
I’ll be honest, if you’re ambitious and wanting to build time ASAP, SEA based Q400 isn’t something I recommend.
