Right now upgrade is 2 years, and with all the orders on the way I bet it'll stay that way, although with this industry it can always change. There are senior FO's (around 150 or so I believe) holding out on upgrading so thats another variable.
As far as pay goes, its a little tricky picking up open time on reserve if you don't live in base as you have to be put on a list to be called to be voluntarily junior assigned.
Yes Orlando is junior, with Chicago being next then Denver the most senior. I started this year in July, holding medium call for November and will have a line in December.
