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.

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!!!

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....
