Take the 190 if you have a chance.
The plane goes to sleep by 12 no redeyes, less time on rsv and so on.
Go to the 190 if you can.

You are right there can be red eyes but nothing close to what you will fly on the bus on rsv. You get the crap of the crap flying and keep moving down when guys sr to you are done with the 2 year seat lock. I know everyone wants the bus because many are sick of regional flying but if you want QOL fast right now the 190 can get that for you before the bus. You will also most likely make more, I did vs the guys on the bus in my class.
Having said that everything can change tomorrow.

Just curious, does anybody have hiring numbers for the past few years??
I know it's around 400 for this year but I'm curious about past years.
Looking forward, hopefully solid hiring continues and a good TA is brought to the table soon!

As for the current redeyes...yes, MCO has them. I believe they are turns to Puerto Rico.
Also saw we are flying the E190 to Cartegena from FLL. How long has this been going on?
