Anyone have a current list or online source where I could find the duration of reserve time for the regionals?

Piecemeal chimes work too.
 
PSA:

TYS -2 months
CLT- 9 months
DAY- 4 months

(All estimates, they seem to change a + or - 3 months on a regular basis)
 
I have a friend on the E120 at SkyWest. He hasn't even finished IOE yet and his schedule for NOV includes Thanksgiving off and some Saturdays off.

Depends a bit on the airplane and the time of year hired, but the ATR at ASA is ~4 months.
 
Mesaba

I just bid my second month at Mesaba, in DTW..
I'm holding a line with all the weekends off, working thanksgiving, but I expected that....
I don't know for sure about MSP, but a friend in MEM was holding a line his first month after Green Line...
 
From zero to 2 years depending on base at Shuttle. IND and CMH seem to be less, while ATL and ORD could take some time.
 
Republic

1-6 months on the Chautauqua (EMB-145) side of Republic, depending on the base. I'm holding a line in CMH after 2 months.

Approximate Reserve times:

BUF - 0-2 months

CMH - 0-2

CVG - 0-2

GSO - 0-2

IND - 4-6

LGA - 4-6

SDF - 4-6

STL - 0-6

Approximations based on Nov. Award sheets.

AWAC is running about 2months right now. I bet it goes up up to 3 or 4 with the holidays, and will go right back down as of January.
 
You have any idea for ORD?
I am an ORD EMB driver, reserve time is as long as it takes you to bid a line once off of IOE, my reserve there was 18 days.
 
Expressjet:

I can only really give you accurate estimates for Newark. The other bases are a guess based on what I hear.

EWR: 3-5 months and increasing (base is shrinking)
IAH: at least 4 months (our biggest base, which for some odd reason everyone seems to want)
CLE: About 9 years. (just a joke, but rsv times there are rather long from what I gather)

I don't know much about the branded and Delta bases, but I gather rsv in LAX is pretty short. The good news is that our work rules are good and being on reserve really isn't bad at all. At least if you live in base. Commuting to be on reserve will suck anywhere.
