BOS 190 or JFK 320 are usually shortest reserve
How hard is it to get FLL or MCO or about how long would you wait and is it only one type of AC flying from a specific base?
FLL I think within a year if you get 320, it's only a 320 base MCO 190 maybe within a year as well but it's senior
Is there a way to avoid Long Beach?
you won't get it if you don't want it
Is there a minimum amount of time you can drop down to or is it impossible to drop trips?
min credit is 70. You can use PTO to go below that if you have some in your bank

Is there a Commuter policy?
Yes but I don't know it sorry.
What is the current upgrade time. I would think the 190 would be quicker? Just a guess.
4 years on the 190 in BOS or JFK
Is it hard to get or expensive for crash pads in BOS OR JFK?
dont have one but I think around $250 in East Boston
Thanks I appreciate it
