I started new hire training in late July of this year, hit the line in the 737 early Oct. One of my classmates got IAD 320 on his first vacancy bid. I got IAD 737 awarded in Nov, still waiting to get activated, looks like probably Feb. So on the narrow body, 2-6 months, wide body would be closer to 1 year. Good news is that commuting DCA to EWR is easy, 10+ flights every day.
As others have said, not much growth at IAD right now, but lots of potential...
