Welcome aboard! Unfortunately there are not simple answers to your questions because things change all the time, but there are some generalizations. Lately, new hires on the ERJ are going to SFO, SLC, SEA, and BOI. But again, this can change next month and likely will.
If you don’t want one of those bases, you can expect to get your base within 1-4 bid cycles, unless you want SAN or PDX and then it could take approximately 6 months or more.
Reserve will likely last 1-3 months, but that can change too.
If my answers sound vague, it’s because it is impossible to look into the crystal ball. But the times above are the about the best approximation one can give.
