3.2 Crew Base Assignment

Generally, pilots will be given the crew base requested in their initial application. During rare instances or to ensure adequate coverage of crew bases, a base may be assigned to you based on seniority and availability. Pilots can submit a request to be assigned to a different crew base with the Vice President of Human Resources provided they have been in their current crew base for at least 60 days, and there are available positions in the new crew base. Since vAAirlines differentiate pilots based on the aircraft group they are in instead of their actual crew base your first point of contact, for all items outside of transferring crew bases, should be your Group Chief Pilot/Assistant Chief Pilot. You are not limited by any means to flying in to or out of your assigned crew base and may fly any route that your rank can hold by group.
