Can't really speak to the other jets but if you want time off with the kiddos, shy away from the 320 in NYC (probably all narrowbody there as well). The ability to drop is nonexistent and there hasn't been a blue day on the board this year.

NYC is, was, always will be the junior base. Other bases are better staffed, but you pay a relative seniority price for the move. On a side note, as a casual, non-scientific observation, ATL FOs place a higher priority on weekends off than NYC FOs. The relative seniority to hold weekends and holidays off in ATL is higher than in NYC. NYC FOs place a higher priority on commutability. Bid accordingly.

Is there a class today? I'm curious if any SLC 320 slots are given.

I don't know if there's a class today...or what the Indoc dates are for the coming months.

Anyone out there with CJOs care to share their dates and how many in class (if you know)?

I was offered July 18th, can't make it for that one, and was then told I'd be put in the July 25th course.

We were told for June there would be classes on the 6th, 13th and 20th. I'm in the June 20th class. Don't know class sizes though.
