Look for the most junior line holder and then reference his/her DOH and do a little math.

I posted this in another thread but when I applied to a few regionals republic told me in an email that they won't be interviewing until March and the classes for those groups won't be until Q4.
This was in mid-December.

From what I’ve heard, they’re doing captain upgrades until April (no NH classes). This would explain why they aren’t interviewing until March.
Does anyone have an idea of what reserve times at the most recent NH bases (IND, PIT, CMH, EWR) are looking like?

Keep in mind what you are seeing now will not be the same in the summer as the number of lines will increase with increased flying. Between New Years and Spring Break is the slowest flying of the year, hence the least amount of lines you will see awarded.

This is what I’m hoping/thinking since I wont realistically be out of training until November unless something changes. I was told from HR they expect some attrition once NH classes resume.
Hopefully I won’t regret making the jump from 91/135. I’ve followed this forum for awhile and man, it’s been a little hostile towards each other in these threads haha.
