Getting 190 is easy as a new hire and then it's a two year seat lock.

So can you make more money holding a line on the 190 than reserve the AB?

I bid better than 50% on the 190 and its 55%+ for everything else.
I'm strictly QOL at this point.

I do look forward to the Airbus one day but not at the expense of my QOL. One mans trash is another mans treasure?
