I think lineholders can and do?

Where are you based and what reserve window do you bid?

JFK and I got stuck with A6 window this month b/c I forgot to bid for specific reserve windows for this month. I only bid for days off.

A6 Window ain't that bad. I know there are a lot of F/O's in JFK that don't fly a whole lot. I think this is the slow month right now anyway, and it SHOULD pick up again here next month with Thanksgiving travel and with the Holidays around the corner. Hopefully! Just don't forget to bid for your reserve windows! I use A5 out of CVG with 'Bid to Fly' and it worked pretty well the last few months. Should be holding a line in a few months. Fingers crossed.

Rumor has it that Paige flew last week?!? So the world must not be coming to an end!

Would love for anybody on reserve to call in sick around 6:00pm in JFK who has an overnight or a line holder. Second time in 3 days DH out at the push. FTRpilot save me.

CVG has been slower this month as well. Few rushes to fly here and their. It seems like I have been picking up a few JFK trips out of CVG. I would think these are FO's dropping but the three that I thought were JFK trips have been full reserve crews. Rumor is though attrition is picking up again so hopefully things will pick up for you folks in JFK.

I'll take that back. Bid Awards just got published. People that held a line this month are going back to reserve next month. Look's like it is still about a year to hold a line in CVG...:mad:

Capt Tom
 
There is a note on Epic about the passing of Capt Tom. Does anyone know who needs a buddy pass or how we can give them away?

The Chow 10-22-2007 09:46 AM

Ugh!
 
I'm 40 away from holding a line. I just looked at the transfer/upgrade chart and I don't see a line for quite some time. Bring on the upgrades!
