Except you're automatically "call first" if OBR and they will abuse you. If not flying, you'll get stuck with airport reserve.

That's new. It used to be very last call, which people hated.

It's still seniority based for OBR except for the first day.

The planners have already said they are going to build Delta 175 pairings out of SFO.

I read somewhere that Skywest was considering hiring part time pilots? Does anyone know if that occurred or if any other 121 programs hire part timers?

They are not hiring part time pilots.
The idea was to allow a certain percentage of the senority list bid down below the current full time hourly requirement losing company paid benifets like the FAs do.

It was met with anger from guys who.....want to work less. Amazing I know.
