Proffer can be completely ignored by crew scheduling if they so choose. Our bucket system can also make preferring a bit more complicated with all the different "groups" in the reserve buckets depending on days available and time already flown that month.

On the 320, we cover LAX/ONT/SNA and LGB. Realistically, 90% of the 320 flying is out of LAX, and the reminder is out of ONT. the other 2 airports can basically be ignored. SNA trips are very rare and go senior on the bus, and LGB doesn’t receive any AA service.
I think the 737 is the same except you swap the SNA/ONT ratios and add the SAN options.
LAX wide bodies (if you are ever senior enough to hold them) technically cover all the airports but only ever touch LAX.
