Shortest reserve time is ORF at the moment, and significantly shorter just to throw it out there, even compred to LGA as well and especially PHL and DCA



Want to make a note As well, reserve is going up, I did ioe in June, signed off in July. Just saw latest vacancy notice, I'll get a line in January. So about 7 months. I was second from the bottom in my class in seniority, and I'll be the first to get a line. The rest are still 8-10 from the top. Movement has slowed down.

Prex8390: Um not really from your two posts above. It could be ORF or LGA? Instead of being a wisea$$ you could have just answered the question.

I think maybe one small class to finish off 2015. I've been on CA reserve for a month, and my phone isn't ringing that much. I think it's different on the FO side. Every month is different though.

Just speaking for my case... I was on reserve for 2 weeks (ORF based). That was in the May/June timeframe. I have been a line holder for 5 months now, the senior guys in my class will get a line from this last bid in DCA and guys in my class in PHL are still going to be 5 from holding a line. Don't really know anything about LGA.

As far as Airport Reserve goes, I intentionally bid that for a month and it worked out great, I'm thinking of bidding it every 3rd or 4th month just to give me more time with the family (home 90% plus of the nights). Of course, if you commute, it may not be the best choice for you....
