Yep, get min guarantee from day one, no per diem though.

It's a little rough but you'll get a $5k bonus with your first check and $26k after completing IOE

Just checked. After a little over a year of flying, I averaged about 70 hours a month in the logbook.

MKE followed by CAE, ORD, and IAD. Good movement now, ORD reserve is probably attainable in under a year after upgrade but lineholder will take longer.

To hold a Captain Line in ORD, it's roughly 4-5 years of seniority.
