You aware that upgrade time was in reference to CRJ, not ERJ? You have previous post’s where you claim you want to stay on the ERJ, and basically don’t believe in yourself to take the faster upgrade which would be the CRJ.
Well guess what? ERJ was 3.5-4 years precovid and everyone knew that, because they explain that to you during the interview, training, IOE, and on the line.

Most other regionals still say 18-24 months. Upgrade times are going to be changing by the month. Btw you’re obviously complaining.

Barring another catastrophe like COVID, someone hired today will almost certainly have the opportunity to upgrade in 1.5 years. It might be to the most junior base on the junior aircraft, but I'd bet the December 2022 upgrade class has someone in it with significantly less than 1.5 years on property.
