Anybody commute from Memphis?
 

Just wondering how that works out for you. Im stuck in MEM for a while.

MEM to where?

Any base you guys have. Doesnt matter. Wanna know if Spirit is viable. I've looked and it seems ROUGH

Seems like you have the answer then. Since you’d be a new hire expect to sit reserve for at least a year, so you’d be commuting to a crashpad. There appears to be 1 flight from MEM-MCO which I’m sure you already saw. Two flights from MEM-MIA which will just be a co-domicile with FLL. 3 flights MEM-LAS. If you have choices to work somewhere else that’s more commutable I’d consider them.

How long are you stuck?

Hold up, new hires are sitting reserve for a year in the junior base?

Around there. 10ish 11ish months for LAS and MCO.

and increasing

I thought the times would go down due to the increased attrition? I’m starting next week and am looking to get MCO as I live in TPA

EDIT: Oh wait, probably because they have limited captain upgrades to prioritize new hires…

Attrition is likely hurting reserve staffing as most the folks leaving have less than 1-2 years on property, resulting in constant churn at the bottom and a small increase in net headcount at the bottom
