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?

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.

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