I also heard a rumor that that a 73NG pilot base may open up there in a couple of years. Thanks!
Change the types of planes and I'll ask the same questions about Salt Lake City...
The MSP 'plug' (most junior pilot in category) is 330 pilots from the bottom of the seniority list.
The SLC 'plug' is 658 pilots from the bottom.
(Both numbers include the Jan. '14 new-hire pilots.)
If we hire at the fervor of the rumors on this forum, I'd assume you could hold MSP by approx. your one-year anniversary with the company, & SLC prior to your 2nd year anniversary.
All disclaimers apply: DYODD, YMMV, past performance isn't indicative of future returns...
