Express Jet

Any info on Express Jet’s reserve schedules days on and off, shifts R1/R2/R3 times? Also what are the average days off for line holders?

Thanks

I believe you get 12-13 days off per month depending on whether the month has more or less than 30 calendar days in it.

XJT Reserve

At XJT you are guranteed 10 days off if the month has 30 days or 11 days off if the month has 31 days. The reserve call out times vary a little by base and are as follows:
IAH
R1 = 0300 – 1800
R2 = 0430 – 1930
R3 = 0600 – 2100
R4 = 0900 – 2400
R5 = 1200 – 0300
R6 = 1700 – 0800
RSV = LONG CALL (12 hour report time)

EWR
R1 = 0330 – 1830
R2 = 0700 – 2200
R3 = 0900 – 2400
R4 = 1200 – 0300
RSV = LONG CALL

CLE
R1 = 0400 - 1900
R2 = 0800 - 2300
R3 = 1130 - 0230
RSV = LONG CALL

Well you better tell that to the jerk who made the reserve lines for july because they all have 11 days off and July has 31 days. Did I miss something??? Youre right on the 12 for lineholders but the original poster was asking about reserve.
