Thanks for the reply. I guess I'll just see what happens.

I'm not opposed to relocating and certainly don't want to commute for any extended period of time so maybe living in or nearby base will be best.

Sounds like IAH is for sure closing which is a shame. I'd like to see some things change in the coming months that allow it to stay open because I was hoping for IAH.

It looks like they've have put new hires on the ERJ into LAX, SFO, and PDX recently. SEA has a list 20+ long waiting to get in.

Which they will burn through in the next few months with the Delta birds coming online.

There are rumors on the republic forum that they may open a IAH base.

Can any aa dedicated pilots give me a general load check from flg to phx on the 24th? Are those flights commonly weight restricted? Kick off jumpseaters?

Also, I tried contacting our jumpseat coordinators to ask how to list for aa jumpseat online for non dedicated employees with no reply. Can we do that or is my only option using the phone number within 24 hours?

Gracias
