Are there co-domiciles at LAX?
Upgrade time?
What can one expect for 737/320 FO days off?
Can you drop/move your sked around?
Are there a good amount of green slips?

1) yes. LGB/ONT/SNA/BUR
2) JR projected CA is an April 2022 hire, but 3,000 numbers senior to a June 2023 hire, no idea what it would be for someone hired today.
3) 12-15 as a reserve, 13-18 as a lineholder. Depends on the month.
4) yes but our grid has been almost 100% negative for the past year. Moving days is possible but not guaranteed. Dropping can be challenging if you cannot get another crew member to pick up your trip.
5) for now yes, but that may change. If you are junior you will probably already be working weekends anyway and weekday GS are less common.

This is “the good old days”. Not saying things are going to get worse, but right now it’s pretty dang good.
My "good ole days" at the five year point with Delta: Just got back from a 2 1/2 year furlough and was the plug on the 727 engineer panel in ATL. So no, not ER Capt at 80%. Enjoy it newbies !!!

With regard to #1, beware that for Reserve Short Call purposes, its all based on LAX, which is different than the NYC area where it can be from any of the the three airports (JFK, LGA, or EWR)

Anyone have the history of this? Just wondering why it’s different.

Hello, I'm actually going to be a part of this class.

Question for those who might know the answer -my first choice would've been 7ERB out of LAX but being that it is not offered for this class, would 7ERB (ATL or NYC) be a good choice to be able to get back in to LAX quickly?
Or would the 320B or 73NB make more sense for this purpose?

Thank you very much for any help on this matter...

You would be able to bid a new base in the Advanced Entitlement that is coming later in June. 7ERB has had unbid positions in LAX the last few AEs so I’d imagine you’d have no issue getting to LAX and converting before you even finish OE. However, there hasn’t been an AE in the last 6 months, so there might be others hired this year that are also waiting to bid LAX. We can’t predict what will happen but I’d say the likelihood of getting LAX is high.
