Fall 2021 new hire bases, waits, trip trades
#1
What are new hires currently getting, and what’s the wait for each base?
Is it easy for a line holder to trade trips and compose a line with trips from multiple bases?
what is the commuter policy?

So many variables it’s hard to answer. No restrictions on flying out of base however.
1 online flight, 2 off line.

Some pilots try to give away trips in one domicile and pick up in another in order to reduce or eliminate a commute.

Base will prolly start with ETOPS on the Left Coast-just my guess. The Denver terminal expansion will be complete shortly, and I expect Denver to grow by about 50%. That’s a bunch of pilots heading to DEN.
Line holders can can trade with others and the company. Reserves can only trade with others.
One flight on company metal to arrive an hour before report (or Reserve Period start), or ANY two flight options to arrive by report.

i've been hearing Denver expansion since I got hired in 2018. Color me skeptical!
