If it's not on there can they offer it to this next new hire class or does it have to be on a bid first?

The only FOs that are able to bid it are current 175 FOs and I'd say the majority of this guys prefer DFW. There will be some that transfer there in order to get the extra pay for 9 months. I'd expect hiring into 175 ORD to be something that will start happening and last for awhile.
Also, it looks like the last class in the 175 will have a fair amount of time on reserve.

You seem pretty knowledgeable. Let’s say you are a new Hire today, what equipment and base would you choose and why? Let’s say you live in DFW.
I’m Curious to see what you guys would choose if you had the knowledge you have now and could start over.

It doesn't matter which plane you pick just hope you don't get the CRJ if you don't live in ORD.
I’m not worried about reserve I was referring more omg the line of better lines/schedules crews etc..
I’m coming from corporate so for me reserve is a normal day in the neighborhood!
