Default New Reserve Rules

Does anyone have any idea what the new reserve structure will be like? Specifically, what will the new reserve availability windows be?

Also, the geometric fence is around the terminal or the entire airport?

My goal is to avoid sitting reserve during rush hour (the call out window is tight, a minimum call in during rush hour could be an issue). Thanks in advance.

There’s a short call and long call system. Four different silo time starts for short call.

Not sure what a geometric fence is....you mean how close to the airport you need to be to check-in for a trip? Couple hundred yards around the terminal area I guess you could say roughly. Check-in available 10 minutes past report time.

I was inquiring about short call. What are the silo start times? Thanks.

It's online. I'm guessing the tentative agreement is what was agreed upon. I don't work at JetBlue as I'm in the process but I have read most of it. You should be able to Google it and find it.

When do your start training? You had another post about preparing early for class. No class assigned yet? Second day of class they’ll give you an iPad so you can read the contract yourself

You could have 10 silos, doesn't matter. The company EACH day decides how many pilots will be in each silo. If they need everyone in an afternoon silo C ( not likely, i guess) then that's the way it'll be. You are not bidding on a silo for the month or even for your weekly reserve block. Each day, just like RSV today.

Start times
A 0100-0659
B 0700-1159
C 1200-1659
D 1700-2200

Go in with low expectations. Reserve at Endeavor is better.

Good advice in general. Aside from pay and retirement, many aspects at higher tier regionals are far better than JB.
