Do they just put FLL / PBI trips on the bid pack mixed in?

Yes. And PBI trips tend to go senior because a lot of guys live up north in Jupiter and surrounding areas. As a reserve, you may get called every now and then for a PBI trip.

I was Miami for a whooping ten months. 1 pbi on the 320. And I proffered for it.

For me I feel like I was fll based more than anything

Not trolling, but some might find it useful to know that Delta offers positive space commuting for all pilots both ways through next fall.

future of BOS base

Has anyone heard of plans for downsizing or eliminating BOS base? Any guesses on how long it might take a new hire to secure BOS? I hear DAL will be moving in soon.

This was mentioned and discussed at the Miami concourse conversation. APA was going to ask/pull some data.

DAL is already “in” and has been.

I’d say 6ish +\- months to get in depending on luck with timing the bid around your hire date.

There is significantly more bus flying than 73 in BOS. Non-zero chance I think.

Yeah, every time I’ve been on the JS or non-reved in or out of there I’ve been on a Bus.

If Vasu would just look at a map and figure out the XLR would have more range to hit more places in Europe than PHL, that’d be great.

Or maybe the grand plan is to have all the XLR flying out of there have a JB logo on the side……. insert eye roll.
