Default Is LAS a junior base?

How junior is LAS, just curious if it’s possible to get LAS as a new hire, that would be my easiest commute. Thanks

You’ll probably hold it in less than 6 months.

How long for ORD or DTW? And how long should one expect to sit reserve as a new-hire?

What's an 85 hour credit schedule look like for an average line holder? Daily average credit for the pilot group?
Does spirit have 5 day trips?

Latest what if award shows guys holding DTW, ORD, DFW, and obviously ACY before they’re done with training. Probably could get FLL too. Only base you may have to wait a few months is Vegas.

No 5 days but they will throw a 4 and a 2 or a 3 and 3 together.

As a commuter I’d love to see 5 day trips paired with the 3.5/1 duty rig.
