Thank you Thrust, exactly what I needed to hear.

Obviously LAX has Hawaii flying that you won’t get as much elsewhere. LAX has more trips that start with a red eye than east coast domiciles. East coast domiciles have more trips that end with a red eye than west coast domiciles. MIA obviously has more Caribbean than LAX, etc etc.

You’ll have plenty of time to do a forensic deep dive into trip mix and what your seniority gets you at X domicile after you get access during indoc… and you can hold pretty much any domicile that has your indoc awarded airplane within 6-9 months of starting.
