(3) ORD - 13 months (10 from now)
(4) LAS - 14 months (11 from now)
(5) DFW - 17 months (14 from now)
(6) ACY - 21 months (18 from now)
* My calculation disregards senior FOs that seem to not be bidding for one reason or another.
** Calculation does not take into account past, current, or future aircraft deliveries or delays.
RE LAS... Recently Flew with a couple of guys that have been here less than a year but can hold a relief line in Vegas. In many cases a relief line is just as good as a line so maybe show the time from new hire to relief...
