Thank you , So maybe a good strategy would be to go to CVG for shortest reserve, get a line, then at some point bid for my preferred base, like TYS or CLT. since i live close to either of those. All advice welcome since I am extreme newbie!

Thank you Rob0015. That sounds like really wise advice. I am asking a lot of newbie questions here I know, but just want to make smart career decisions. I know TYS might not be the best QOL, but since it is close to home, I think if I went to CVG first like you recommend for shortest reserve,, then eventually hold line in TYS, that would not be such a bad deal.

TYS is a fairly small base, but some captains there will be flowing this summer. In theory, some TYS FOs will upgrade and want those spots, so the should free things up some. |

Reserve isn't bad at all if you live in base, but an easy commute to a R1 line is worth it with the SAP.

Commute ATL to CVG?
I'm still in training, but already drew CVG as my first base assignment. I live in ATL.
CLT is presently my number one bid preference, and I'm told I can expect to get it soon enough. Commuting from ATL, there's at least 15 direct flights per day (AA and DL) to CLT. And, of course, I can always drive. But, I'm wondering whether I should keep CVG because of the comparatively shorter reserve time. What do those in-the-know think about an ATL to CVG commute? DL has about 7 non-stop flights each day. AA is a two-leg trip for me. |
