In general, ONT has very senior and very junior FO's as well as Capt's. FWIW.
Junior schedules are NOT real pretty though...

I don't want to burst your bubble, but I suspect it will be a while before UPS hires. There are 107 on the street and the retirements are only about 40 per year. If UPS recalls like they hired in '07 you'll see guys placed where UPS wants them and then they will be displaced to the junior domicile. Unless that guy with the old lady avitar knows better, you'd be better off getting you 737 type and your FE written and stay away from UPS. Your best choice may be to go back to school and stay away from flying.

I agree with the comments on the probability of getting ANC in the future, I was only giving the current numbers. Also agree that lifestyle absolutely sucks for junior folks at UPS, albeit with good pay. I would set my sights somewhere else as well if I were just starting out.
