Also, the over blocking is wonderful when you have a commute home to make.
Right now reserve is running at 13+ months. CVG is at @ 1 year. So choose carefully......

30 days after that. But they'll give you a pass to go home before then if you need it.

I'm sure this is common sense but be careful about traveling during training if you plan on trying it, if you can't get back in time for class well there goes your job.

Let's see if I can help you with this. If you click on reserve status it will list everyone based on how many days you're available and your seniority. Then you have to look at bid to fly and less than 100 hours. You also have to look at your window.

I hope that helps a little.

It is my understanding that FQ is that they need to "finish" qualifying. The bad one is NQ, I believe. Someone told this to me a few weeks ago and it is the only explanation I know.

Well fq means you cannot fly... even if you have not gone passed the 9 months.....nq also obvi means you cannot fly.... i didnt FINISH qualifiications bc my loe was cancelled due to weather and i only got to do the MV, however I did not have an FQ, I continued to fly bc i didnt go over my 9 months....... who knows... my question was why does someone whose been here about a year have a ! (low time) sign next to their name
