Upgrade here with prior 121 I hve seen at least three pilots that got the upgrade in about 6 months working for Silver. You just have to put the bid and leave it there. Most of the FO here they don’t have the 1,000 hours 121 yet.
that's my 2 cents.

Do you know which hotel in Miami they use for the sim training? Trying to figure out what part of Miami I'll be in.

For ground probably you gonna be on the Ressidence Inn by FLL airport. Very nice hotel, nice room and breakfast. In Miami we use the Element hotel pretty much at the MIA airport. Also nice hotel.
