This comes up a lot, so I'll just throw some numbers out there. This is according to the July Award, the August is still in mock.
Most junior LGA900 line holder: Jan. 2016
JFK900: Sep. 2015
DTW900: Nov. 2015
MSP900: Nov. 2015
DTW200: Mar. 2016
MSP200: Feb. 2016
All the expansion is in NYC right now, so you can probably expect those reserve times to drop. I was one of a couple in my class to get sent to NY, but the last few classes have been almost entirely sent to LGA or JFK.
The max amount of days they can put you on reserve is six consecutive, and you have to allow that through a PBS option.
