The only fix is to force guys out of ORD who don't currently have a standing bid to leave.
The past few new hire classes aren't even touching ORD on the ERJ. The needs are all West coast.

Quick peak at the ORD transfer shows about 10 that want to transfer out west. Or we could let the pilots transition that are already out west that want the 175. Or we could do it "the way we always have" and give Delta benefits to ALL 175 pilots and you would see the 175 go way senior out west.
Some want to fly, others are fine staying on reserve and not fly at all. But SGU doesn't care what the pilots want to do. I agree that they want to keep the reserves low so you have to call in and burn user time to get any time at home.
Now to finish my line and figure out how I am going to fit 48 hours of flying in with my 9 days of pre-assignments, since my line won't finish without awarding me 90 hours of flying. I just have to figure out which of our bases I fill like sitting in for 4 hours in between flights. Or figure out which trip I am going to bid that I will call in for to use what little user time I have left.
