While it looks that way on the surface the answer is no. There was nobody hired from 3/2020-6/2022. So it’s closer to 9-12 months. It’s a strange base where some months the most junior pilots in the base get a line when a bunch of more senior people like to sit reserve. It’s odd.
Also of note there are a bunch of commuters in Vegas from DEN and PHX. When PHX opens in Nov., if all goes according to plan, then that will clear out Vegas a bit and help bring the time on reserve down.

Not to be too optimistic here but we are currently filling classes of 48 so staffing shouldn't be that big of a problem.
PHX opening will definitely pull a lot of guys out of LAS making LAS go more junior. PHX will be more senior im sure.
And they aren't going to shrink DEN, at least not permanently. They just secured a bunch more gates in DEN.
(that's my daily dose of optimism)
