Im sure you’ll get a faster line in ORD. No idea the current times.

You can hold a line off IOE in ORD. IF you finish IOE in time to bid for line next month is the key.... so the remainder of the month would be reserve... I know a guy bid for may and got a line with weekends and Memorial Day off. 15 days off, right off IOE.

145 DFW hasn’t been offered in more than a year. It is taking close to the same amount of time as 175s that were LGA or ORD 145 initial hires to get to DFW as well. (Seniority, open bid, and then actually transfer)

I assumed DFW went pretty senior. I could do ORD. Wouldn’t bother me one bit. Besides DFW being senior, the rest of my thought process solid or am I missing something?

Thanks for the info! Wait time to hold MIA isn’t as bad as I thought. Though things could change.

All times are GMT -8. The time now is 08:02 PM.
