My guess is even if I can hold a line I'll still need a crash pad in NYC to start trips since my commute isn't so great. I've been told the 717 will fly out of LGA and most likely I'll be commuting into JFK, so something that splits the difference would be good. I'm willing to pay more for a private room, not interested in hot bunking. If anybody has anything please send a PM. I'll need it beginning in December.

Thanks!

I was last there maybe a year ago... Not the same as the good old days.

Let's just say I wouldn't be going back there.

I don't know how the noobs fare in NYC. It would seem to me that they would try to stabilize the base rather than have folks pass through there like poop through a goose. *** do I know......

That's too bad really. It was part of the initial airline experience. I wonder how many pilots married new hire FAs over the years who met at Yerman's.

That's right...43 NYC.

I wonder what went senior...my guess is probably airframe and less so domicile?
The 737 and A320 were very senior. All four 737s and all four A320s were gone by like number 12. The last ER didn't go until around number 30 or so. A handful of 717s and 88s went in the top 15 or so.

The 10 most junior guys didn't have to waste their breath picking the Mad Dog, as it was already chosen for them.

badflaps,

Thirty years ago, I showed up at EAL training and asked where was my rental car and why did I have to pay for the Viscount on 36th Street. Seems airlines pay only when held up at gunpoint. Corporates expect two things: car and hotel; per diem is actual expenses. OTOH, the long term might be better.
