Under a year for the CRJ, about a year for the 700.

As far as commuting goes, I heard MCO is a nightmare due to all the Delta commuters.

I commuted from MCO to ATL for a year, between SWA, F9, and the occasional Spirit it wasn't bad at all. Actually it was a lot less stressful than commuting to DTW which I did for 3 years. Kicked myself in the rear for not transferring sooner. Good luck!

Does anyone know the code required by Spirit to jumpseat in?. I tried EV, EV + employee number and neither of them worked.

PM sent...

Which year?

How long is reserve in IAH? trying to decide between Mesa and XJET. I want to live in base so these are my top picks. Hard choice being they are 2 totally different airlines with plus and minuses.

Houston is the senior base. No one in my class got it out of training. Reserve probably would be a while but if you live local that's not much of an issue. Xjet is definitely a better quality airline than Mesa but Mesa has the nice new planes.

How long would it take to transfer into iah?

Once the United CPP begins at the end of this year you will see movement starting again. I would expect you could hold any base by early 2017.

If it's any indication, the seniority list shows May 2016 hires in IAH
