6 months reserve in the 900.
3 months reserve in the 200.
Reserves cannot preference trips.
I flew with an FO recently who ran the spreadsheets and said at 60/hires per month new hires would upgrade in 3 years or less.
This is not a quick upgrade avenue. 2.5-3 years is a reasonable expectation. We have a senior pilot group with TONS of experience. This place can groom you from 0 to Delta if that is your goal.
