Minor correction... the junior Vegas captain is just over 4 years seniority.
All bases are attainable short term as an FO. The junior bases for captains (in order of most junior first) are MIA, PHL, ORD, & MCO. LAS and DEN have both had captains involuntarily displaced out of them recently.
My guess is MCO is not attainable as a captain for a current new hire for at least 10 years. That is unless they grow it or open a TPA base.
