Keep in mind all of this can change at the drop of a hat... bid for what you want and hope you get what you want.

Endeavor management just offered Time Off Without Pay to the pilot group meaning they have way to many people for the amount of flying they have. Pilots looking to come here would be smart to look elsewhere EDV offs good pay but that’s about it.

You also have to wonder how Delta's future A220 flying is going to affect all their East Coast codeshares. If getting off reserves or a base or a line or upgrades is a lengthy process now, how much longer will it take when some of the longer legs are done by the baby bus?

All the good flying is going to be gone it’s going to be 200 flying in the 900. Go somewhere that you can move up the list fast because the music is going to stop sooner then people think and you want to be as far up the ladder as you can get before that happens.

The last vacancy for 2018 just dropped. Here is what we have. The dates are the date of hire for each position.
Base|Equipment|Most Jr CA|Most Jr FO
ATL|200|13NOV17|26MAR18
ATL|900|9JAN17|11DEC17
DTW|200|23JAN17|20AUG18

MSP|900|9MAY05|8JAN18
NYC|200|9APR18|1OCT18
NYC|900|23APR18|29OCT18
Everything is slowly starting to slide more junior, with MSP as the forever exception to that. The 200 is still showing the most movement out of the two fleet types. After this vacancy, I can't imagine many more happening in the first half of 2019 due to no planned growth so this may be the last upgrade opportunity we see for 6ish months.

However I will say that things will slide very senior on the captain side for those who win awards... upgrades will go to fos with seniority wanting to start the dgi clock, not just anyone who has the time. Big departure from how things have been here for the past 2-3 years. By the time big vacancies come back this coming summer, all the spots will be taken by those hired in 2017, not to those with prior 121 time being hired today.
