At some point during Indoc they will cover it. Especially when you are taught how to log into Saber/DECS. There will be plenty of time & opportunities to learn how.

You don't need to print it. They can tell if you completed everything.

Any apps for bidding, trip trading, getting into sabre. Turning the bid sheet into a click able graphic?

Quickbid, quicktrade work well for those sorts of things.

DFW parking

Once we have a parking pass, where do we park at DFW?

There are employee parking lots on the north and south side of the airport. Buses run to the terminal.

The problem is seniority in class goes by age and the 175 lately goes Pretty much the most senior. I'm not sure why that is though because I heard the 145 pays a better bonus. Is that true?

That's true. 175 has been popular because it's a nicer plane for one, and the time on reserve has been substantially shorter. Most new hires have only been doing a month or two of reserve then holding a line. That could change after the 40th 175 is delivered in the next few months if there aren't going to be any more deliveries anytime soon.

That is true. $5k bonus on E145/Crj700. To make it $22,100. Subtract that by $5K if you select the E175.

Under the wing engine, more Pax, and Auto Throttles / VNAV... makes it more appealing to people for some reason.

I would not recommend taking a $5k hit on pay to work a different equipment. At the end of the day, it is a job & the risk & efforts and pay rates are the same. Take the money & base.

Only positive I see is getting DFW right away vs after training & the Emb170/190 type rating IF your plans are to eventually fly OVERSEAS (EU, Asia, Middle East, etc) in the future.
