Apparently.

although, seeing as how you’re the first one to jump in and correct grammar, I’m thinking you took the grammar bait. Unless you now claim that you were doing a double secret joke.

oh well. Either way, arguing on the internet is a mute point and your not going to suck me in too your web

How senior is ORD? Is it a base that can be awarded out of training? Or at least a few months out of training? Whats the average for a line in ORD?

Thanks all.
According to the prelim bid today - ord is now the most jr base - all the bottom new hires going to ord. It may change but it seems ord is easily attainable

How is commuting? I'll be commuting from the west coast to most likely ORD with LAS as the ultimate goal but don't mind commuting. Is there a decent commuter policy? How about priority, is everything done through MyID when commuting on anyone other than Spirit?

We will be going back to our original commuter policy of 2 flights either next month or in June. Currently we just need 1.

Delta and United you show up to the gate and list for the Jumpseat. MyIDTravel for AA and Southwest. Frontier uses ID90.

If your taking a company flight, it’s rare we are 100% full so most of the time you will be in back. When you list for a Spirit jumpseat it is first come first serve among employees. I don’t believe it ranks the JS list in order of seniority. Maybe it’s changed, but I don’t believe so.

What happens if you miss your 1st (or 2nd later) option? Just miss pay for the parts of the trip you miss?

If you miss your first, sometimes they'll buy you a ticket on the 2nd flight, or they'll say "try the 2nd flight" depending on how bad they need you. If you don't make the 2nd, they will drop your entire trip or part of your trip and you don't paid for it. I've only had a commute drop 1 time in 4 years of reserve. Most of the time I'll get on the 2nd flight on my own, or the company will buy me a ticket.

72 hours prior you can book the JS and it's yours.

That’s good information about commuting. I have been commuting 5 yrs on AA being “in their system” and this was probably my number one concern. I don’t mind commuting I just hate the paranoia associated with listing in OALs. I’m out of DFW so options are in abundance It’s the whole listing process that gets weird.
