Hello…
I’ve been reading some posts about the “fast upgrade”. Based on the current status, on average, how fast are we talking about?

If you have the required 121 time....less than 6 months. Most likely get a captain award during training in the next few months.

Whats the bet of having the Jepps extended another month. 4 days away from the expiration of the last extension.

I'm doubtful of this. There were plenty of guys hired between November and January with 121 time.. And as the guys hired last year with zero 121 time start getting their thousand hours they'll start bidding captain and the upgrade times will grow.

Most of the zero 121 guys I have talked to have between 350 and 550 hours now but they are also off reserve. The window I believe is still there but its now or never. All that said, this is the internet.

Any idea how many guys they want on the seniority list? If so what's the junior captain's number?

Thought reserve was 0 at LAX? Anyone actually experience real reserve times?

There are still people on reserve. Someone has to do it. Its only a month right now. You might get a build up line, consisting of a trip or two then reserve days added in there.

Recently it was pushed back to May 18th....now they say the "end" of May. So, we have that going for us.
