Depends on who is bidding out so could be immediate or a long time. Ending of daily FUK and delayed service to Cebu probably means not gonna see vacanices any time soon.

2025 Updates?
So, going to class soon. I know it’s a long shot but we are very intrigued by GUM basing. We love the tropics and adventure. Just trying to arm ourselves with knowledge in case it comes available year one. I’ve read most of the stuff in APC, etc, and just wondering what things look like now since it’s been over a year since the latest GUM updates. Has the flying changed? Commuting from Mainland (plan to move but will need to get back and forth some) still the same? Overall impressions? As a first year FO what can I expect schedule wise? TIA!

We have guys who are more senior commuting from all over the world, including the mainland.
Some people go to Guam and never leave, others nope out on the next vacancy.

Most of the vacancies have Guam trending pretty senior recently, and the movement is no where like it was in 23. Guys have been pretty much in the same spot for a while. Junior life is fine if you live in base, if you are a proper, monthly commuter, it's a bit miserable because you can't really control much. If you're a sometimes commuter then it's probably okay

Would imagine if we took it early would be on reserve. Sounds like that might not be a player, but with the MOAB and, what, 100 737s + others coming, seems like there might be a lot of movement? Anyway, just trying to be prepared because it does sound like something we’d love to give a go. Although the constant red eye thing is also something to consider.

There’s no curtain/privacy screen so it’s a Class 3 rest facility for 117 purposes but I think the recline function would otherwise be enough to qualify it as a Class 2.

Technically it’s not a “regular” FC seat. There’s an override lever to the recline function that allows it to go back like 70° or so. Definitely not a crew bunk, but not a standard cabin seat, either.
