There will also be plenty of times you’ll end your tour the same way in reverse. You won’t be getting picked up or dropped off at your house. And Hobby and Sugarland are WAY more popular with our customers than Bush.
You may have a shorter drive to IAH but you'll spend more time in cars in the long run. Of course some trips you'll just airline from IAH but a significant number of tours will start at Hobby or Sugarland. At the end of the tour would you rather Uber/Lyft HOU-IAH then drive home or just drive home from HOU? |
I’m IAH based. Rarely do I go to hobby or sugarland. I’ve been on the latitude since June and haven’t started out of hobby or sugarland. I will pass through there on a tour. On the phenom it was a couple times a year for me to start out of hobby or sugarland.

Thanks for resurrecting this thread. Could someone explain if the HBA list of airports is still available at all? Sounds like not to new hires but possibly to pilots on property at some point? I could make a commute work for while to one of the crew bases but would want one on the HBA list at some point should I get hired. Thanks for your info. if this is even still a thing given the age of the original post that is...

Can any new hire pick any crew base on day 1 or is there still some sort of seniority based bidding system?

That said, every so often, more people are allowed to opt for the HBA system following a union-company agreement to modify the CBA*. *Past performance is no indication of future returns.. |
