Hey don't touch my turkey 🦃 voucher.
There are many things to change here at the Wheezy, the free holiday turkey 🦃 isn't one of them.
I appreciate the gesture. I've worked for many companies, only two of them have made sure that all of their employees had a big meal at home.

Default envoy vs skywest

Also, I do have family in Denver which would make training/staying there awesome as opposed to SLC. Any insight on pros/cons of the different equipment and how long to get ORD on each, etc, is appreciated. I saw from a post a few pages back that it looks like about 5 months or so for the 175, but any other info is appreciated. Thanks-it's tough making all of these decisions, but also fun!
Many thanks.
Just sent you a PM

They send you to another base to sit reserve, can be great for commuters sucks for non commuters. FA have a option to prefer it and the base too.

Really? You don't think a lot of the ORD 175'ers will want to head west with the additional frames coming online for Delta? I thought it might make ORD have an exodus and have newbies go back into ord. Thoughts?

Maybe a few, but I don't foresee all that many leaving.

They would have left already. If you are in ORD, chances are they live there and are not going to do a west coast commute.
