They are fat on 220 FOs in SLC so if getting paid to stay at home is your goal, 220 reserve is the way to go. The trips are less fatiguing than the 737/320 if you want a line. The only drawback is that the 220 only goes to a handful of places so there is not much variety.

What’s the best ski resort to visit on a 24-hour layover at Little America? I’m not an extreme skier, but enjoy me some blues, so I dont need to go way up into the mountains.

Solitude is probably the closest. Be mindful of traction laws and ridiculous canyon traffic on powder days

You can take the UTA ski bus to Brighton or Solitude. Same route, Brighton is 5 min more up the road, both are great.

Anyone care to speculate on how long it is currently to hold SLC as a NH? I'm guessing movement has slowed a bit?

Most recent bid saw brand new hires get SLC on the 73. Previous bid saw both 73 and 320 go to brand new hires.

Bid 73/320 and you’ll either have a shot in class or within 1 or 2 monthly AE tops. 220 is tough because of the fleet problems they’re having but seems they still backfill positions even on that.
