4. Is the EMB CA in NYC the most junior Captain position companywide?
Thank you very much.
90 FO's give or take.
Trips begin and end at the same base.
No EWR trips on EMB.
Can't speak to lines but RSV trips are bw 3-6 days.
Flying kind of sucks. You'll see a lot of DCA, RDU, CLE. However you'll trips often go through other bases.

Thanks for the info, Brett.
So trips start either in LGA or JFK? Majority probably from LGA? What’s the approx. ratio?
Trips are up to 6 days? wow.

They start in LGA & JFK, they are supposed to be done at the same station.

Max trips for line holders is 4 days, unless you have a transition conflict. Then you might be done a sequence one day and continue with another the next day.

But if you're on RSV I would recommend to pack for all your reserve days, because they can extend you and won't be back for a couple of days.

NYC and MIA RSVs don't fly as much as ORD or DFW pilots.

Been here for 3 years and am DFW based and have never had a single Mexico overnight. I have done 3 turns to mexico but those were all by choice (OT). I don't intentionally avoid Mexico but it just hasn't happened. Some people like it there, some don't but you could say that about our domestic overnights as well. It just depends on what you like to do on your overnights.
