You will need a crashpad while on reserve if you do not live within the callout time of your base.

Yes you can. Ask the cp.

Hmm that was before we got the bonus and new contract provisions. They would have upgraded if they stayed and would have made double that they are now.

Well, fortunately I have not had to ask the current group for a hotel. The previous 2 groups were "no's" every time.

Before that it was not a contractual item.

What a naive comment, if all them boy's hadent left all that money wouldn't be there. You knew that though and still posted. Besides, with there terrible ISL thers 500 numbers between some of them. Are you saying Endeaver upgraded 500 Fo's to captain in the last 12 months?

Because the getting AIDS isn't worth a 20k bonus. Every responsible person knows to go to an airline with the shortest 1 leg commute to the fastest line schedule.
If your family can deal with you being gone 20+ days a month, they can deal with you being gone the other 10, and you are totally not needed or serve a purpose to them.
Guys in the past didn't have much of an option, so they did the best they could. Nowadays it would be purposefully inflicting tortue on them and yourself.

There would be no bonus had we stayed. I couldn't be happier about leaving Endeavor. I am a Captain, live in base, and will probably make close to what I would have had I stayed. But I don't have to commute to be on reserve in NY so I'm saving a few hundo a month on that front. I guarantee no one who left is having second thoughts. I wish I had left Endeavor sooner.

I've heard from what I would consider to be a credible source that PSA will announce ORD in the spring to coincide with our increased flying from there. Other contenders are DCA or even PHL. Perhaps XNA as well. No one knows and speculation runs rampant.
