Im not sure if this is what you meant, but you only list for one flight. Then, when your at the airport, if you dont make it on that first flight, they "roll" you to the next flight. You dont independently list for 2 separate flights, unless for some reason you have multiple cities you can go through. So, under your scenario, if say you didnt take your 1st option because the flights were wide open, and for some reason your 2nd option has a 4 hour delay for maintenance (happened to me) then technically your not in compliance with the policy and will get a CNC (could not commute). I had this same issue. I missed my 1st flight by minutes because I got stuck in traffic and by 2nd option flight took a 4 hour delay causing me to miss my report time. So, you have to leave your self 2 options, but if you miss your report because you opted for the 2nd flight, it can get you in a bind.

 

Think I get what you're asking. You don't ont have to be booked, but you have to show proof in the form of boarding passes for each flight you tried to get on, that way they see physical proof that you were at the airport and made an attempt. Just listing yourself, or what I believe you mean by "booking" yourself, on a flight is not enough. Another thing that's been done is get to the airport, get the boarding pass that you receive prior to the one with a seat assignment, then go back home. So now even if the flight was wide open you still have that piece of paper they wanna see. However I strongly advise against this as you're definitely playing with fire. All they'd have to do is look at the flight load to see it had open seats. Number one rule in this industry: don't lie.

 

I gotcha. I am sure they will explain more during training but I wasnt clear on how the "booking" vs "listing" on the flights worked.

Thanks for the explanation!

 

The way to remember it is that you have it two good shots to get to work on time. If you made two real efforts, there is nothing to worry about.

They still expect you to show up to join your trip as soon as you can, but you will not be held liable for it.

 

Cool.

So this is where the hot reserve comes in? So if a person doesnt make their two legs to get to their trip, the hot reserve gets burned.

In that case, if you are the hot reserve in DCA and you have to pick up the leg of the guy that missed his commutes and you fly a DCA-PHL leg, what do they do with you then? Does the hot reserve DH back to his base or do they flow him in elsewhere?

 

Thank you for clarification... I guess since I am approx halfway to both CVG and TYS, and prefer TYS, but if time is much faster to R1 at CVG, I guess that is no brainer. Then would have a plan to get back to TYS at some point

 

Yes. And clicking on a search result always misses the actual post by about 6 pages.

 

Well, it wouldn't be PSA without at least one rescind and reissue...... CLT CA R1 is a little more junior than previously.
