Comair Reserve Time?
 

How long has anyone been on reserve at Comair? I think the website says 10-14 months, how accurate is that? Also, how is life on reserve compared to some other airlines?

I have heard anywhere from 3 months in JFK to close to (FOREVER) years at MCO

what about at CVG, that is where I'd like to end up eventually, how hard is it to get CVG?

9-12 months but you will start in JFK for a few months at least

3 months at JFK? Is that true?

i was on reserve for three weeks at jfk before I had a line. And the reserve was not bad. I had 3-4 days trips all the time and never had to wait for a call.

3 weeks? what was your hire date?

in november, also reserve is not too bad at JFK. Yes you need a crash pad but once you learn how to get around it is not bad at all. I think I actually stayed at the crashpad 5 nights last month.

If reserve is that short at the JFK base, how long of a wait is it for upgrades? I heard Comair requires you to have 3,000 hours before you can upgrade.

Going on month 24 on reserve in CVG. I'm 8 away from a line this month.



Upgrades in JFK actually went about 300 numbers senior to me, So i think it is around 4 to 4.5 years. 3000tt, 1000ME, 500hrs at Comair.
