Default Reserve At Comair

Anyone at Comair know how long Reserve time is at CVG? Thank you. Would you recommend a crashpad there? How do you get around the city? Thanks.

About a year and a half I believe, may be going down, saw someone with less than a year with a line for July.

Check the board int he crew lounge, plenty of crashpads.

You need a car to get around town, public transportation by the airport is crap.

How is reserve at JFK these days time-wise? Still around a few months? Perhaps with the reduction in classes at the moment it might come down a bit.

I was only a few months to a lineholder, for which I'm thankful its only that short. I've had Long Call 2 all month (12 hour call out) and have worked 6 days in a row with only 1 day off, then another 6 on all month besides my hard days. And they weren't out and backs either. 4 day trips with a highspeed tacked on the last day or two.

The few guys ahead of me on reserve haven't worked a lick all month, and for awhile in May it was the same way for me.

With GSO/MCO closing, I'll move back a few spots, but what really is gonna hurt is that they gave the go-ahead for 90-100 of the FO's below me to transfer to CVG (over the span of the next 2 or 3 months). Thats going to move me alot closer to the bottom and lenghen my reserve time more so then the base closures. I'm staying put in JFK though (live in NY).

FWIW - Heard it's down to about 1 year.
Buses are the only public transportation in Cincy....nothing extensive. Otherwise, it's a nice area.
