I was awarded the 717 to NYC in the 4 Jan Indoc class. I was awarded ATL, on the Jan AE during Indoc with a conversion of 1 Jun. I was notified today that my conversion was moved up to 1 Apr. I will be the plug in ATL on the 717 but the commute from LIT to ATL is so easy and the hassle of covering 3 airports and the weather issues in NYC, and the hotel/crash pad costs make the move to ATL worth it. Just my opinion.

SEA most junior category is 73N which is May 2015 hire. The ER is a Nov 2014 hire.
SLC has ER, 73N, and 320. April 2015, July 2015, and Dec 2014, respectively.
