To give you a gauge when Phoenix opened it went a mixture of seniority. A handful of very senior people from both seats and then all the new hires for a few months. That was due to the amount of very senior lifers from when LAX was a base. May be the same on this one from the New York days but who knows how many of those are left in the seniority list. The question is how many people live there and are commuting to MIA, DFW and ORD. Expect very little flying and no movement for at least the first 6 months as management gets a feel for how to use the 170s out of DCA. But sitting reserve at home is way better than commuting anywhere
