Anyone with access to Republic system could share the current availability to the bases by seniority, please? I just received a cjo and I am trying to know if I could get one of my desired bases.

Thanks in advance!

 

You're kind of asking for a lot of research here, and, what's available is up to the whim of management. What are your "desired bases"? I don't mind looking at a couple. Also keep in mind, this changes constantly we don't "displace" based on seniority so if three people leave ORD (a historically senior base) and there aren't three bids for it, it could theoretically go to a new hire.

The "staffing update" for Feb is out, it indicates the most openings would be (desired bidders - current bidders)
IND 4
CMH 7
EWR 1
ORD 7
SDF 3
Again, keep in mind, this is all kind of abstract. Management will decide at the time of your bidding where they want to put you and your classmates and you'll be placed in those bases based on your bid picks in seniority order (date of birth)
Moving to your desired base as an FO really shouldn't take very long either way.

 

Except Boston. Way to many fos in Boston

Everyone in my class got there first choice.

 

I guess I'll be the one to invest the time for you, but it will not be what is available. Here is the most junior FO in each base. But, as already expressed, what you see today is not what you'll see tomorrow. Also, what you see is already out of date as it does not reflect the most recent bids which will be published Oct. 9 or so, which will include 60+ pilots.

IND: 8/29/23
CMH: 8/29/23
PIT: 8/22/23
ORD: 8/8/23
LGA: 8/8/23
EWR: 8/8/23
PHL: 8/1/23
DCA: 8/1/23

SDF:6/20/23
BOS: 1/17/23

 

The union releases a podcast at the end of every month. The data showed that you can basically get any base except BOS and another one (forgot which one), in less than 3 months. Most bases are 2 months, some are three. IND you can get straight out of training. but as others have said, this varies from month to month.

 

October 9 Awards.

CMH: 9/26/23

is this a break down of the most jr new hire at each base?

If anyone knows, I’d be interested to know what that 2nd base is.

Junior FO in base, by hire date.

See above.

 

Latest base award bids (Nov 9). Most Junior FO in base:

IND: 10/24/23
CMH: 10/24/23
SDF: 10/24/23
PIT: 10/17/23
PHL: 10/10/23
DCA: 10/03/23
EWR: 9/26/23
LGA: 9/19/23

Breakdown of the 54 October New Hires eligible to bid:

IND: 20
CMH: 20
PIT: 5
PHL: 5
SDF: 3
DCA: 1

 

Now seeing EWR, LGA, BOS (which happened to be the only bases that are somewhat drivable from where I am). Does that mean a new hire cannot be on reserve in any of those bases?
