Default Time to a line on narrow body fleet...

Has anyone started a thread updating the time to hold a line on the 73 and Bus fleets in the different bases? Would be nice to see the trends and how they change in the coming bids.

It varies so greatly. In LGA, guys are holding a line within a few months on both airplanes (save for 737/I because it's such a small bid status). However, in CLT, it's almost getting to the point where guys can hold Group 2 Captain in LGA or PHL before they can hold a line on a Bus.

737 LGA movement is great. First month was SC second LC third was a line. This last bid I was even able to hold my L2 . I think another 10-15 guys are filtering out by June from that last big vacancy bid.

A couple years ago I was seriously contemplating leaving CLT for JFK AB and doing those two-day 321T trips, lines of them back to back for 24 hours pay doing one leg a day with no red-eyes. That stuff in CLT is like a 20 year wait on the FO side...

If you live in the NE and don't mind it JFK/PHL is by far the best bang for your buck seniority wise. But DFW has been getting a lot better too, it seems Charlotte is stealing it's thunder.
