The OP is basically asking what it's going to be like 2 years from now.
Whether or not people are getting upgraded at 1000tpic right now has little to no bearing on this person's future at Endeavor. It's a poor way to choose a regional airline to start your career.
Just sayin.

Get in and get that seniority number. Attrition is about 20/month give or take and is expected to stay at that pace since SSP is basically over and who knows about DGI, it's still only a promise (DL has actually stopped hiring for the summer). People will continue to go to SWA, NK, B6, etc, etc as those companies are are now getting better contracts and are easier to get on with than legacy mainline, and at least second year there you will make more than a CA here on gaurentee, and get to go to to overnights that aren't Cleveland. Personally I think the time to have come here was ~2 years ago, but if we get those nice shiny 175s and some west coast hotties to ask us if we need anything before closing the door, maybe current hires will do pretty good as well. lol

Any Updates
Are upgrades still happening at 1000 hrs? I have about 800 prior 121. Just curious. I'd actually prefer to go to a place where I can sit in the right seat a bit longer. It's a been a little while since my 121 days.

I think it slowed down a bit. Either way you’re not forced to upgrade here so you can sit right seat as long as you want.

As of the last vacancy it’s still basically new hire on the 200 here, about 1.5-2 years for the 900. With company offering 20 upgrades a month on average (40 each bimonthly vacancy as of late) and 40 or so becoming eligible per month upgrade time will increase if things stay status quo especialllllly with the Dgi carrot. Who knows what’s next as far as growth tho.
