I picked the 18th thinking I would barely miss JFK. Then they said training might be a month and I realized I'm an idiot.

Ditto. Besides need time to line up housing/crahspad in DTW. Can't see much time in between finishing training then heading straight there. Not going to make the same (expensive) moves I made as a new hire in JFK.

Not necessarily! Depending on this next vacancy bid and upgrades, CVG could go junior on the FO side. There will be a few CVG slots on this next bid, how senior it will go, nobody knows. DTW will be about the same size as JFK plus a few extra pilots, but it is a better option for commuters, so DTW could also be more senior or about the same as CVG.

If you voted you can PM me your name and I can do a real count... See how it stacks up to this poll! All will be kept in confidence.
I'm leary as well. Seems "too good to be true" that 11 in our relatively small APC world are resigning. I'm hoping today's bypass meeting goes suprisingly well. I think it would make a big difference for a lot of people and get some who want to come back soon, on the next round. Good Luck to all..whatever your decision may be!

I disagree. JFK would have been a much easier commute just based no the number of flights a day.

I agree. Where are these 11 people in the Updates thread. I think I have only seen 1 or 2 people say they would resign there.

That might not be the case, especialy if you were CVG based before recall. Observe:

All recalls are being displaced to JFK. You and the Mrs/Mr will each get 2 round trip positive space tix to go house hunting. Then, if you are again displaced to DTW, you get another 2 passes each.

You also get 3 consecutive days off for the move, but I'd be careful in using those days as house hunting days. The contract says they are to be used for "...days off related to the move." They might get suspicious if your primary mailing address doesn't change soon after that.

But at least you get positive space tix for a day trip to find a crash pad.
