Reserve in base at EWR shouldn't be too bad. the 757 flying there is some of the best of the airline. Lots of choices. Sitting reserve short call at home is being paid to stay home. As the Covid recovery continues, expect to be used more on reserve, but right now, working hard in the summer, less starting in the fall.
There is a good mix between international and domestic. However, if you fly international, you will be bunkie for a very long time. Domestic trips are mostly hands on. It will be a while to hold a line. To hold a line, the 737 should be the quickest.

Again, I can't emphasize this enough, reserve in base is not bad. Paid to stay at home. Commuting to reserve is a nightmare.
Thanks! Good to know they'll be around for a while. Is the flying mostly out of EWR?
