No, it's a 9 month lock to go to the ER from the domestic 75/76.
Also, I'd prefer to be JFK based (I live in the area) and I would love to fly international. IF, on the slight off-chance, there were a few 777 slots offered, as well as 767ER slots - which one would you pick, and why? My guess is that with fewer 777s in the fleet, I'd fly to less places... But being junior, maybe I'd fly to just as few places on the 767ER? Would either aircraft provide a dramatically different schedule? (I'm aware there is a somewhat significant 2nd yr pay difference.)
Not that this is likely to be an option, but I hope you like Mumbai. The nice thing is that as a junior guy on reserve you'll have the same choice of destinations as the top captain...
