Any idea how long to hold a line as FO and/or CA in CLT? For those who are bidding?

FO - 10/2019
CA - 7/2012
mind you, the big hiring gap of 2020-21 for the FO and the ~1000 pilots hired in 1998-2001 that are Junior to that 2012 pre merger Airways hire

You could probably benefit from just reading through the threads for a few hours, as most of your questions have been answered countless times.

I'm definitely not in a hurry for them as the focus is on QOL but would be interesting to see. Thanks!

If I understand this correctly bc of the high seniority at ORD you might be able to get to ORD as a 737 FO, but you will be on reserve for a much longer time as a result of the higher seniority there (2 years?). Then you can upgrade to Captain at another location based off of seniority BUT in order to get an ORD Captain slot the wait will be around 7 years. But then you will also be on reserve another couple of years before you can hold a line as an ORD Captain bc of the high seniority there. Also, the wait times here could drop though with all the retirements in the next few years.
