This is great news for someone interviewing and wanting to stay close to west!

Thanks
Confirmed true as an hour or so ago. Somewhere just south of zero chance you'd get Denver as a new hire. Way too many guys here from the LA and Ontario days that will be all over that.

Apparently the draw down will be from ORD mostly.

So is this a growth, a shift, or a reduction in flying?

It sounds like a shift. No new aircraft announced.

Very cool. Think IAD will go junior?

Will definitely have to talk to them this weekend.

Is 3 days or 4 days trip more common for new FO?
If depending on base and equipment, please share what your common trips look like.

thanks!

I believe its still mostly 4 day trips as 3 days tend to go senior. Most or all of the time, trying to trip trade from a 4 to 3 day will not happen (due to low reserve coverage - supposedly). Then again, if you are trying to change a 4 day to another 4 day with same days, that also will be denied for some odd reason. Anyway, expect 4 day trips over the weekends if you are junior and holding a line.
