Few questions I didn’t see pop up in the last few pages…
Do new hires get assigned A220? (Live close to TPA) So I guess Breeze could either be awesome or really not that great if having to commute.
If commuting are you allowed to jump seat on other airlines to get there or are you supposed to buy your tickets with the commuting bonus money?
Training is traditional or AQP?
TIA

Thanks, is TPA senior/junior if assigned the A220? How long to hold it if senior?

I ask a similar question about a year ago before the pay was corrected. I live an hour from New Orleans, MSY, and like the idea of being home while my daughter is still at home for a few more years. How easy is New Orleans to hold on the ejet as a FO. Also, my understanding is that a person would be home most every night on a normal schedule.

The people at Breeze are what make it so great. Charter was supposed to be set up to attract senior guys who had experience with the irregular ops, then in reality they made it where no one senior would really want to do it. The Captain list is relatively senior until you reach the bottom quarter, then it starts to get junior. I’m not sure you could hold it anymore as a DEC, it could potentially take a few months to hold it. But that’s all a guess

I was curious, as I have small kids and at home and will commute until the base structure is solid. (Hoping for a Michigan, south bend base). In mean time as a junior DEC, can you easily drop, trade days? Can you just drop and take the pay hit to be home? I think this place is going to be amazing, just don’t want to leave my kids parentless for a few years is my only concern at this point.
