Reserve time on the E175 in ORD which is the junior base is nearly a year. It's longer than that in SFO, DEN and soon LAX. The CRJ has zero FO reserves in the junior bases and nearly every CRJ base except for a few are possible to get a transfer to in under a year.
At the mid-seniority range the E175 and CRJ aren't a lot different, but for new hires the E175 is far far senior.

If anyone here that isn't at OO and wants the 175 LAX, it will be a while. 37 have been awarded it, and 69 on the transfer list want it (37 of those 69 have it listed first). So even if they let a few real junior guys sneak into LAX, they'll be on reserve for a long time.

Yeah or just go to compass and get LA out of training and be a lineholder probably in a few months... there are pros and cons of both places but if you live in LA it's kind of a no brainer. same thing if you live in SLC... you should probably go to skywest... (of course I will say that compass has historically switched bases quite often, but unless a massive amount more 717s come out west, probably safe to say that LA is gonna stick around for awhile especially with the american stuff.)

With the AA 700's going to LAX and 19 DL 175's getting dumped into the West Coast (how many 190's in SEA??) the writing is on the wall....for CPZ.. On the West Coast.
Any of you guys Patriot fans??

Oh wow! 7 CRJ700's! We'd better watch out! Compass isn't going anywhere on the west coast, but whatever makes you feel better.

You don't have to be an expert sport. Look at the facts.
SKW gets 19 175's, announced to be flown on the West Coast. DL is buying a bunch of 190's, announced be flown out of SEA. Now you tell me unless they start doing 3x formation SEA-SJC service and boarding airplanes on the freeway in LA and in the SEA MX hangar what do you think is going to happen?
The whole "isn't going anywhere" attitude is pretty naive, especially when dealing with DL. Which makes sense considering you were flying a SkyHawk 6 months ago.
