congrats buddy...you cvg or jfk based?

and what's your e# if you're jfk based so i can see where the Waksdjfhal;ksja;sdlkfj;alsdkfj i stand.

haha, so true. What got you your April line? Seniority or the T4?

Well welcome to the 70. It'll be nice to finally get some more beneath me on the seniority list.

PS, I you figure out the TLR, let me know. Most of us are still clueless

The differences training pushed me into a line. I was surprised to see that so many people actually got lines on the 50. I was sure that all the guys that got a line this month will be back on reserve in April. Oh well, I think going to the 70/90 is still a smart move, especially since we got more flying coming. Maybe by the end of summer I'll hold a line on the 70/90.

Sad thing is, even if I would be in JFK, I wouldn't be able to hold a line. Maybe if MCO and GSO would still be open:D

Def not MCO. That was VERY senior base.

700/900 is a good gig. You'll make lots of money. Not just due to the higher pay rate, but more flying. I think last month I credited 104 hours. This month is looking into the mid 90s so far, with 2 more days open

Exactly! Where do you think most of the senior F/Os went when they closed down MCO? JFK! Easier commute. All these senior guys moved into JFK, pushing us down the seniority list in JFK. I think there is very little movement in JFK.

Great, another thing I dont know about. What is the SAW?

anyone here commute from cle or ord to cvg? how is it and which one would be the easier? thanks

Schedule Adjustment Window

Opens 24 hours after the line awards are released and is open for 72 hours. Basically it is a window where you can adjust your schedule. Those awarded a line may request trip drops, adds, and trades on a first come first serve basis in an attempt to better their schedule. Those awarded reserve may request reserve window preference.

Clarification:
SAW is only for lineholders. Reserves cannot do anything except see open time

As for the ORD/CLE commute question: I'd have to guess that ORD is easier, strictly due to higher flight frequency (United, Skywest, Comair, Freedom, GoJet, A. Eagle)

I commute through ORD all the time (gotta love the 2 leg commute). Extremely easy commute..especially if commuting to LGA is an option for you. Both American and United have hourly flights ORD-LGA.
American has 3 daily flights to JFK.
Jetblue has 5.
Comair..normally 5 depending on the day.
There are also several EWR flights if you're really desperate..

Only time I've ever not been able to get on a flight ORD-NYC was on Comair...I don't even try Comair anymore for the commute.
