I would be very surprised if Avelo doesn't have something similar. And there is no chance Avelo would require pilots to move to base. How you handle nights in base between trips is up to you.
With pretty much any other airline, commuting would be my plan. Breeze and Avelo are the exceptions, because as a practical matter, a schedule of near-daily O&Bs rather than 4+ day trips is much better-suited to living in-base. No matter what, commuting is not currently an option for me since there's no easy way to get to most of Avelo's bases from were I currently live.

Had an interview recently and waiting to hear back. Possible Sep/Oct class dates were mentioned.

Anyone on here that has gone through training recently?

Totally agree. Was more answering the "how long till Avelo makes you move" than the "how long till I move or quit".

Default COVID-19 Vax?

Does Avelo still require the COVID-19 Vaccination?

Default Avelo Application Inquiry

I am currently trying to get employment with Avelo or anyone who can get me. I tried my luck with SkyWest Airlines and Denver Air Connection, but I was not able to get through training. I have since gotten my R-ATP and a B-737 Type Rating. I have applied to Avelo a few weeks ago and I'm not sure if they got my application. Is anyone in a similar situation?

Have an FO interview with Avelo. Anyone have insight on how long to hold Burbank? Also, what do the schedules look like in Burbank?
