I wouldn't be surprised to see some the AK 175's shifted to LA/SF as QX spins up their program.

Where did the BOI rumor come from and what's the legitimacy of it?

A ton of airplanes overnight there, giant MX hangar, and service from multiple partners.

Hey I'm currently at another regional on the 175 thinking about making the move over to Skywest to be based on the west coast (where I live).. Can someone tell me about how long would it take to get LAX on the Ejet and how long reserve is? Thanks.

How many 175 departures are there from DEN with United?
Keep in mind that you don't only fly in and out of your domicile or hub. You might be based in DEN but may very well fly throughout the entire system. It's possible to leave on the first leg, day one of a four day and not return until the last leg of the trip again. A DEN crew may very well spend there time on the west coast or flying in and out of ORD/IAH.

Not to mention that you might not even fly the plane out of your base. They might throw you in the back and reposition you!

The last award into LAX/175 was awarded 12/20/16, went to a guy out of training. However there were no FOs allowed into LAX/175 in January, Feb, or March.

Junior LAX/175 guaranteed lineholder is a Jan 2016 hire, so that's 15 months of reserve.
