I'm not so sure it would be easy to get anymore. The last time any pilots were transfer into ORD was over three months ago. Of course things can change but right now ORD is shrinking and IAH/MSP are growing.

Thanks for the info, I know things will be changing fast with the amount of hiring. I got the CRJ, I'm just curious to see where I may end up, I'm expecting MSP or IAH. Hoping to transfer to PSP or LAX eventually. Being a SAN/CRQ commuter, any bases you guys would recommend to maximize QOL?

Between SLC and DEN, which is more commuter/crashpad friendly while on reserve?

Thanks in advance.





I recommend they reopen SAN as a domicile since they're now wasting over a million dollars a year on hotel costs for what was, and still should be a domicile!!!

100% agree with that...wishful thinking on my part...

If you're on RSV DEN is not your place to go. The airport is waaaaaaaaaaay outside of town, and again, they seem to be shrinking the base. IAH may not be that bad from SAN....

Anyone know how long reserve is running at MSP or IAH for the new FOs?
