Oh man, you've posted two questions on this forum. The first about SkyWest health insurance and the second about west coast RJ bases. This might not be the dream job that you thought it would be.

Sound more to me like the OP just wants to make an informed decision.

Sorry if the question was asked before but what are the chances to get ORD as a new hire?

Are they going to fill the new bases first?

Probably awarded IAH or MSP initially, then you will likely be awarded a transfer to the non-Cali, Oregon, or Washington base of your choice prior to finishing class.
