Any info will be appreciated thanks
Commuting to the 330 is doable, but not the easiest in terms of a commute. Wouldn’t plan to spend too many years doing that. Also runs off strict seniority for bidding, so if there’s not much more recruitment below you you’ll be waiting a while for good rosters.
However if you’re in WA there’s also the 787, and a short wait to 737 FO. Far better options than an extended commute to the 330.
Reserve rosters (blank lines) are now shared amongst the pilot group so no more perpetual reserves.
