I was started indoc in Nov got ATL 73N. AE came out same week and I bid LAX 73N and it was awarded. My LAX base takes effect in Feb/March.

10 of 13 LAX 73N B openings went unfilled. Hopefully LAX is a good base choice going forward considering DAL is opening the SEA 73N base. Combine this with the fact there are probably guys living in SEA that are based in LAX and SLC which means now they can avoid the commute and they will subsequently vacate LAX (and SLC). This might lead to new hires getting LAX (and SLC) out of indoc on the 73N. I think it could be possible especially since so many new 737's are joining the fleet, but I am new here so don't take my word for it.
