Yes. Next year CAs are going to get slammed again! The company cant qualify enough CAs fast enough for the hiring they are doing.

It isn't likely for FOs right now but it is for CAs.

As far as RAP1 and RAP2. When 10am comes around, do they start calling RAP2 before calling any RAP1's? Or do they still call most jr regardless?

I believe they still call the most junior.

They will call the most junior that can legally do the trip.

Provided the captain isn’t junior as well. I’ve been called a few times with 10+ below me who didn’t have 75 hrs in type because the CA was fresh off ioe.

Do you have a long call reserve? Could one sit in IAH and commute up or drive to DFW on reserve?

No long call reserve at Envoy. I think Mesa has an IAH domicile though

How easy is it to commute from IAH to DFW? Would it require coming in the night before and can I get home the same day my trip ends? How many night will I be away from home with DFW base? Thanks.

It looks like a really easy commute on paper 17 flights a day. First flight gets to dfw @ 0615 last flight Home leaves at 2235. I’m not sure how full they usually get or how many commuters there are but you should be able to make it work
