*Other good flying is ORD (United CRJ700) trips, longer legs, better overnights, younger crews. United system is terrible however...

*IAD (CRJ700 United) and CLT (CRJ900 USAir) provide the best and most productive shots for Newhires to obtain a line or at least get flying while on RSV.

*Every new hire chooses CLT until they get over the "900."
The east flying varys greatly with a mix of east coast, west coast, short and longish. (20mins to 2:40Hrs.) CLT-GSO vs. CLT-OMA

*On Reserve(RSV) at any base you will never break guarantee.

*Hawaii (HNL,KOA) Bases are most junior, closely followed by IAD. (because everyone knows Dulles just sucks and costs as much as Hawaii)

*Benefits on UAL and USAir pretty immediate with option to add family etc.
