How often do base bids come out? I am going to be moving to MCI in a few months but will probably bid NYC until then (I currently live in NYC).

Every month. There were 6 FO openings for MCI on the December bid.

Default Benefits

Can someone please explain to me how the benefits work at rah? I have a few friends at other regionals and I've been trying to piece together as much info as possible.

I know things will be changing shortly when all the flying is under the republic certificate, but let's say I'm an LGA FO, and will expect to fly for all 3 majors (correct?)

- Because I'm flying for all 3, I can expect benefits on all 3?

- How does it work? I know united has the "Employee Res" site where you can list yourself or companions, etc. for flights. AA has something similar. What about delta?

- Is there any public record of jumpseat/travel benefit agreements for all carriers? For example, how the priority works for you, spouses, companions, etc.

Thanks!

There's a written test at the end of indoc and one at the end of systems. Think FAA written and sheppard air with a much smaller question bank and open iPad. You have to be really trying in order to fail them. I think training is on track right now but there is about to be a flood of the last guys off the 145 transitioning, so you might get a little vacation.

Please read 5 posts above yours. Post 1463.

All mainline carriers have websites to list yourself. Explaining all of them would require a full day. You'll figure it out as you go along. Company website explains how to initially sign up and sign into each site. Someone from travel dept usu speaks to you during Indoc. The rest will be "tribal knowledge" that you'll gain from other crew members and with time and experience using them. "YMMV"!

According to the memo we got few days ago company did the right thing and decided to give us benefits on all code shares. It remains to be seen if they are going to pull the "you are not supporting abc codeshare" excuse but it will be really hard to pull that with exception of some bases.

As far as the priority is concerned the only one that sucks is American. The management decided to hose the non holly owned ones (I meant wholly ) grin ...
