Long haul international is exactly what it sounds like with lots of 24 hour layovers. Reserve varies dramatically by fleet. Don’t worry, you probably won’t be holding it for a while. New hires get some of everything except SDF 74. The bottom of every fleet (except SDF 74) is roughly equally junior. All fleets pay the same which makes the dynamics of fleet bidding different than most other companies. People bid aircraft based off of desired schedules. Desirable schedules vary due to individual preferences, phase of life, etc. You won’t make more somewhere else if you are chasing money, but you can also do very well just working min guarantee (81+ credit hours per calendar month). Finally, do your own due diligence and dig through the threads. There are better answers to your questions already written.
