I’m looking for some info on reserve (long call and short call) in both airframes. Is the commute to SEA when called from reserve possible? (Im new to understanding Horizons ops).
If you go Q, any words on seat lock and how long until it transitions out?
HR today said April training dates for the Q and late May for the E-175. Anyone have any opinions as to jet happiness? The bonus is appealing.

Reserve rules are the same for both airframes. Short call is 2 hours, long call is 12 hours. We have commuter protection rules in place. If you go to the Q the FO to FO seat lock is 4 years; there is no seat lock preventing you from upgrading immediately (although not advised).
The Q will always be at Horizon, at least for our really short flights. The fleet plan calls for 30 Q's and 30 Jets at the end of 2019.
As far as Q vs. Jet, it's really two separate airlines. The only advantage to bidding the Q is to be based in a certain city. The jet is better in every other imaginable way.
