LAX 320 captain seniority
 

Delta guy here with a question and request-



Wondering what the most junior airbus captain seniority in LAX is. Additionally it would be great if someone could provide a copy of the current AA seniority list.


A friend says he can hold it as a late 99 US hire. Just curious.


Thanks

Junior airbus captain is 11,000ish. That could be a late 2012/ early 13 hire for former US guys.

Lax 73 captain is early 2014 hire.

What make LAX so junior? Why are guys able to upgrade in 5 years?

Because living there will cost you your first born....and no one likes commuting

PHL and LGA also have narrow body captains less than 5 years right? Not just LAX

Yeah but I get why people don’t want to live in PHL. LGA is a nightmare to drive in and out. Captain pay in LA doesn’t seem too bad but I get your point.

What other domiciles have Captains in less than 5 years?

It’s the red eyes. The flying there blows.

MIA Airbus went in the low 11,000... 2013 AA hire.

DCA, MIA, LGA, LAX, and PHL all have around 5 year captains.

I was based at LAX as a new hire 320 FO for the last 7 months (DFW as of 31 Jan). I checked my logbook and I've done only 2 redeyes at American Airlines.
