You can live where ever you want. The only thing is that you wouldn't be able to use the commuter clause if they paid you to move.

I believe the rule was they will pay for your move up to the distance between the two bases, then you pay the rest. I do not believe there is any rule preventing you from using the commuter clause.

I am pretty sure that's what I learned... It makes sense... If you have them give you money to move to your displaced base then you lose rights to a commuter clause, because you aren't commuting if you took the money to move to your new base.

Comair/ALPA Pilot Agreement:

Chapter 6 (Moving Expenses) does not mention the Commuter Clause.

Chapter 24Q (Commuter Clause) does not mention Relocation.

Therefore you can take a company-paid move and still use commuter clause.

BlueMoon and Spoilers nailed it.

Comair/ALPA Pilot Agreement

Section 6.B:

The company is required to pay moving expenses when a pilot is displaced or assigned...from one domicile to another in accordance with Section 23 and when a pilot is recalled from furlough to a domicile different than the domicile from which he was furloughed.

The commuter clause has nothing to do with the company paid moving expenses. I know first hand. I lived in CVG and was displaced to JFK. Since I could not afford to live in NYC I moved to ATL. Since the distance from CVG to JFK is more than CVG to ATL, the company paid for the entire move. That is when you then fill out a new commuter form from you're home city and it is done. The commuter clause remains intact and untouched.

Thank you, I was too busy watching WWII in HD to look it up.
