Quote: What aircraft and base combo gives the quickest upgrade and how long is that? Aka shortest route to the left seat at Allegiant right now is?

Also please explain VDB OR VBD details.
md-80 vbd - awarded upgrade right around one year mark from date of hire, first captain paycheck at about the 16 month mark (from doh)

airbus - as it stands now, awarded at about 20th month (OAK, LAX, PIT are most junior), first captain paycheck right around 2 year anniversary.

class dates typically follow awards by about 2 months, and training takes about as long.

airbus upgrade time is trending higher. best GUESS for a newhire today would be 4 yrs.
