Default Plug/Junior Line Holder

I know Skywests website posts the junior pilot for each seat, on each equipment, for every base. But does someone have the junior line holder information? Trying to figure out how short reserve time would be for certain bases and equipment (ex. LGA 175, ORD 175, DEN 175, ORD CRJ, DEN CRJ). Thanks!

ORD CRJ will get you a line first. Then LGA 175 (for now), DEN CRJ, ORD 175, DEN 175 in that order. Getting DEN 175 could take 6 months. Getting a line in DEN 175 could take well over a year.

Like throwing darts at a board blindfolded. With that being said. If hired and in class after the holidays, that’s leading info spring flying. Reserve would be minimal.. hired a month ago hitting the line January.. few months. I guarantee someone in February will post something about being back on reserve, after holding a line right off IOE in October. Happens every year...

Thanks for the help. Down the road I plan on moving to Denver so reserve isn’t too big an issue, but being on it for a while may pose one. I’m just trying to see where I should start since LGA is a pain for me to get to (too long of a drive, very little flights) so ORD would be my best bet for commuting.

How long to hold a line in ATL? Just exploring options. Is there a list of what the DOH the junior line holder is for each domicile by equipment?

Thanks

FYI.. The number of line holders in each seat/domicile changes every month due to fluctuations in the amount of flying the company does. -- Total block hours change every month..

September DOH right now. Another 15-20 or so on the bid list waiting to get in. Thing move fast though. Start class in January, finish training by April and you could be in MSP by May/June.
