Jr bases are JFK and BOS. Not sure about time frame to hold LRC.
As an offline commuter, you need two options to get you to work on time.
You'll have typical jumpseat agreements available to you. You'll be able to purchase standby tickets on most airlines for your family, but offline is always last on the list.
*There is an agreement in place with AA due to the NEA which will give you some higher priority, but I'm not really familiar with it.
And his two flights have to get him to base minimum 1 hour before show time. And the way they are building trips, he needs to subtract two days off from his min days off from each trip, as he won't be holding commutable trips until the next ice age.

yeah, the 220 is brutal next month for commuters, and it's impossible getting a much over 70 hours of credit. I want my red eyes back!

I've been watching and the FLICA refreshers are getting more aggressive on the A220. And yes, if you commute now and you're even remotely junior, I hope you like having 8 days off a month... I can't imagine why junior guys are leaving...

Before the first round of 48 hour opened on the 190 in Boston there were 10 trips in opentime. That was the least amount I've seen since I've been here. Months prior it would be in the 30ish range.

I believe its 6 months to re-apply. Don't quote me on it. If you have the tbnt email there should be a contact email on there for recruitment. Could always email them and ask how long till you can re-apply.

That is standard not only for pilots, but everything in the US. My dad was HR for non-airlines. Law requires 6 month retention of applications. They have a right to automatically reconsider (but don’t hold your breath). Beyond that, anyone has to reapply.

If you are selected for the 190, is it a full training? Or differences training/procedures? I am in the process of selecting which LLC to get a date with.

Couple other questions:

-What is the junior base currently? Time to hold a line or LCR?

-How are the flight benefits? I would be a commuter, I have no JB flights leaving from my home airport unfortunately. Can your family fly on the Big 3, how’s the priority with that?

-Is training AQP, or traditional?

-Training pay? MMG, and per diem? Foot print for training?

-Is pay for a FO on the 190 $100?

Thank you!
I'm pretty sure that if you're already typed you can just start as a Captain in JFK on the E190. Training is AQP, but with your experience you can probably teach the instructors a few things too. Welcome aboard!

He’ll instantly get hired in the school house and fly left seat turns in Orlando with 10 year FOs pulling gear for him…then come on APC and complain about how bad instructors have it.
