In your guys' experience how does the bidding tend to go?
I will be 28 on day one of indoc and live within ~1hr of BOS. Going to be bidding BOS regardless of airframe (Pref would be 220->320->190). Is BOS typically bid for more than JFK? Or is BOS typically bid on by locals, and JFK for commuters?
Fully understand that it differs greatly class to class but just trying to get an idea of the likelihood of getting BOS out of training.
Thanks!

If you don’t get it right away I can all but assure you that you can get a base trade within the first month or two.
tons of super junior base trade requests on the list this month. Lots of people looking to swap bases.
and since you actually want the 220 and it’s based in Boston, there is no risk of being stuck in a base with no swaps available.

don’t fear the 190, especially in Boston. It’s a pretty continuous conveyor belt in and out of that seat so QOL will improve fast, likely the fastest of any seat. If the plane goes away, and it will eventually, getting displaced is not a bad thing as the base isn’t going away and you can look at your situation and go from there. You can then fill into your seat of choice, whatever plane you want, and displace anybody junior to you for it, plus you won’t be seat locked.

Next class drop?
When can we expect the next class drop? Also, how many classes per month are they currently running. I am March 15 and hoping for A320 SQ at either BOS or JFK. Do these tend to go junior or senior. I have family in London so that SQ would be huge to see them more regularly. Thanks in advance for any responses !
