Comes up pretty large on the computer if you maximize the window.

Thanks guys... got it now. What do you see as trends here . Are the new bases having impact or shortening time to get to R1 at CLT, TSY, CVG

Not for me. I was going to have a R2 line in May for CLT but the lines were taken from CLT for Philly and Norfolk so yet another month of SCR in June for me.

Not just yet. I think more senior guys are waiting for the dust to settle before making moves to new bases.

At least you aren't one of the FOs who were forced to upgrade to CA, then given SCR in Norfolk. It was considered voluntary, so no allowances were given. So you're stuck commuting to reserve, and no per diem or hotels.

QOL for those who have lives and families in other cities could hardly get much worse. Especially if they live somewhere that is not a hub city. Then it's a two leg commute to reserve!

Adding insult to injury, your ($250) commuter hotel allowance cannot be applied to a crash pad that you so badly need...

I thought that anytime you changed bases you got hotels and 24/7 per diem before your RLDs. Is that not the case?

That is correct. However that covers only one month but there are ways to keep switching bases to get numerous RLDs.
Now if you were senior FO who lived in base and now you're forced to be CA on SCR in a base you don't live at, that's a poor situation.

Anyone know who I need to talk or the process of getting a parking pass for a base that you aren't based in? I live in ORF but I have to commute to DAY until August. If not, does to company reimburse parking expenses??? Thanks..

I’m also interested in the parking situation in ORF.

Might be the local parking authority. I pay $50/month to them to park in the airport parking lot so I can commute to CLT. Had to bring a letter verifying that I worked for an airline.

No parking pass from the company since I’ll be based there?

I believe he is based in DAY but has to park in ORF where he lives. Not sure if he has a car in DAY and if so, if they only pay for one airport and if it has to be your domicile. I just know that I live in a non hub city and had to pay the local airport parking authority to park there as the company would only give me a pass for CLT.

Did they tell you how the parking works in ORF? I’ve sent 2 emails with no response. They sure can email us when they need something but when we do, not a peep.

If you are based in ORF, per the contract the company must provide parking there. Contact your ORF base coordinator.

If you are based in DAY, the company will only provide parking there. Not in any other base.

SCR CLT CA can’t be correct. Might be an error or is it?!

Yes you can always have it worse, but it still sucks.

Really glad I'm back in CLT on 8/1, and just able to hold R1 by then...... probably.

You can be SCR/HRV in CLT or SAP with R1 in DCA or DAY .. :D

Not a bad plan, but I'm still of the opinion that if you live in base (like me), SCR is no big thing.

True. Life's about choices.

But the folks who were holding SCR in CLT in Feb that can't hold it now are probably irked.

Okay, I've heard rumblings of this but I'm now officially curious -- does PSA have long term plans to close CLT? Where is the flying going? PDT?

Lotta (adj) enough to make seniority change.

The lines have gone to PSA flights in ORF and PHL. CLT is still BY AN ENORMOUS MARGIN the largest base.

PSA does something like 50% of ALL departures from CLT, American's most profitable hub. CLT is not closing.

Even if you’re based elsewhere all lines lead through CLT at some point on your trip.

Lol no. The company only shifting some lines from CLT to fund the growth of PHL and ORF. But I believe as Envoys CR7s continues to come over and and the the new CR9s come online to replace some CR2s, PHL and ORF will see the growth.

Just curious -- I presently live in NJ but like most sane people I want to get out ASAP.

Say I come to PSA and get my local base (PHL) initially. I move to CLT once I can hold at least SCR as an FO there (less than a year it appears).

But then, say after 6-12 months in CLT I am force upgraded, which requires me to commute to reserve. All other things being equal, would it be easier to commute from CLT or another outlying base like PHL? I guess what I'm asking is whether I am more likely to get commuter-friendly flights out of CLT vs a smaller base like PHL and therefore whether it makes more sense to move to CLT sooner rather than later.

CLT is closing, TYS will be the next AA/PSA megahub.

blackhawk88 05-24-2018 07:56 AM

Following scheduled departures from CLT today-

AA Mainline: 309
Envoy: 10
XJT: 6
PDT: 24
PSA: 288
Republic: 21

I doubt PSA will shut down CLT. I believe we're even building a new mx facility near E concourse to better service our needs.
