Dulles only has something like 15 FO's on reserve, so there are lots of people junior to me who bid IAD to hold a line, but I would rather have 6am reserve over the weekend than commute for an FO position at a regional.

Good luck if you commute. I hear our commuter clause is pretty good, but I have no experience with it. Overall this is a good place to be while waiting for Delta/FedEx/SWA/etc.. to call.
What's the highest/lowest/average amount of days for all the lines available, thanks again for the info
