As someone who watches AA hiring closely, I'd be very surprised if that guy's story is accurate. Unless he's a visible minority, in which case all bets are off, but he seems to credit his "networking" ability lol.

Thanks for the answers guys, as expected there’s not one single best bet and kinda boils down to 175=hours 145=QOL. It’s given me lots to think about but I’m pretty sure it’s a choice that I could only appreciate after 6 months of actually working reserve/line. I’ve nonreved a few trips and can imagine the hell when that’s on the tail of a long trip.

If it helps I am indeed not military, but yes 4 year degree. Married, no kids, 26 and rent an apartment in Miami.

As of now I think I’d prefer the E175 commute for the 1000 and then possibly back to MIA as 145 CA. But I’ll report back with what I get.

Oh and just a few more clarifications on how reserve works.

If I were to go 145 and commute ORD until I知 senior enough to transfer to MIA, do I again have to do reserve until I知 senior enough to hold a line?

If instead I pick 175 and commute until I can upgrade, then I知 not seatlocked so I pick 145, I would have to continue to commute until I知 senior enough to MIA and then reserve there until I can bid a line, correct?

You池e reserve in the base you池e in until you can hold a line in that base. Same with when you upgrade. You probably won稚 hold MIA right away and would be in ORD and have to transfer in and you壇 very well be on reserve then as well.
