Seniority can determine days off, weekends off, holidays off, efficiency of trip, commutable or not and many others.
My advice is to take the seniority (RAH) but remember every changes and nothing's a sure fire bet.
Agree with JetJock, especially after SKYW's earnings statement today . . . I think SKYW is going to hit a very big bump down the road on the operations side of the equation. One in which they are going to have to spend A LOT of money to fix. And it sounds by todays statements that this bump (The MESA Bump) is getting closer.
