The more seats the better the movement/opportunities will be.

Our western based pilots have been traditionally more senior because we don't really have an entry-level airplane out west, coupled with the fact that the vast majority of our pilot positions are based east of SLC. The 73 in LA is the closest thing, but it's so small that it's still very senior (ie not enough slots to trickle way down the list.)

More/new narrowbody spots on the west coast is a good thing for anyone wanting to be based out there.
