Honest question: how long to currently hold CA at DAL at a base that’s not bypassed regularly because it’s miserable?

Has the 2 year upgrades hit the non NY bases yet?

Nov 17 hire was awarded 320 ATL CA

To be fair, it’s my understanding that there are more than 6,000 FOs senior to him who opted not to upgrade. He will likely be sitting reserve for a very, very long time. Not many people wanting to commute to JFK to sit reserve for a decade.

Ah, nevermind. I misunderstood (read: I don’t read good) your post. I thought you were referencing the young’n that was a November 2021 hire who upgraded on the 73. Completely missed the context of “not NY.” I think I’ll retire from internetting for the night. 😂

Thanks. 4.5 years for a non NY CA slot. Not too bad but just trying to get it in the correct context when people say “sub 2 year upgrade”.

Detroit went to Jan 2020 hires.

The Junior NYC 73 captains will likely hold lines rather quickly. In recent months the plug has been able to hold a line.

I don't think reserve at DL as bad as it is at Spirit though.
