Looks like around 13000 seniority. That’d be a spring 2019 hire. Don’t know about commutability. Probably depends where from.

A post from last spring you might find helpful: Best / worst of American’s pilot contract?

MIA 320 is smaller than MIA 737, and trends senior. Your seniority horsepower will increase faster on the 737, if that matters to you.

this is a reason why the Airbus is generally more senior(I sure there are instances where this isn’t true but generally speaking)….seniority never lies.

I am a base hopper and it really does depend where you live but generally, from what I have seen, MIA is a hard commute. Loads are always high. I never sat on the jumpseat more than I did the 4 months I was in MIA. Also seems like MIA has ran on a consistent all day schedule from certain cities like most hubs do (early morning - late at night). For instance, my city is now all afternoon/evening flights which really kills the commutability.

Thanks, I have a cargo airline that I can commute on pretty easy, so late starts is what I’m aiming for.

I’m done. I’ve upset aa73 enough. I’ll peacefully leave this ghetto ride as soon as a vacancy bid grants me parole.

I commuted for 7 months clt-mia. It was terrible. Until covid I was in the jump every single time. Usually on that torture device they call a jump seat on the 737. What a mistake, I should have stayed in new York at the time.

Since we didn’t get the 350, unfortunately, I’ll still be on a Boeing.
