Eagle is really junior in ORD. Reserve time should only be a month or two max. And you are guarenteed to get a jet... CRJ or ERJ

Good to hear you're joking about BlowJet's, I'd recommend SKW. ORD is one of our most Jr domiciles for both CA's and FO's and it will remain so. It's almost GUARANTEED you'll get ORD and if you don't you'll most than likely be get before you finish IOE (Initial Operating Experience).

Other regional airlines with ORD bases are Mesa (STAY AWAY FROM), Eagle & Republic (SA).

Of them, I'd choose SKW or RAH.
