Do pilots in the bus get more hours per month since the flights are longer, or does it even out sine the 190 flys more legs?
Here's a rough idea of trip lengths by fleet breakdown:
320:
34% 1-day
25% 2-day
20% 3-day
17% 4-day
4% 5-day
190:
36% 1-day
19% 2-day
18% 3-day
26% 4-day

. I have no idea about commuting though and Flyby has more experience here and has prob flown both planes. It really depends on the individual. Good luck.
I've only flown the 320, but I see the seniority progression as a 320 FO vs a 190 FO. Purely QOL related, I would say bidding 50% on the 190 would produce better results than being 80-90% on the 320. To each his own though.
