It depends. Long term, a new hire will probably never see DFW as a captain. We have 5 year captains being displaced. JetBlue is a big unknown. They might grow it or close it, or somewhere in between. Short term, with all of the attrition, there have been a lot of junior guys getting DFW.

Thanks for the input, I’ll pass it along!

Pick an airline and move to that airline’s biggest base. Not hard in today’s environment

For ORD FO it’s hardly any hit. The mock award, which is just an estimate, has FOs still very junior for ORD, few months out of class.

ORD CA estimate is a 1210 seniority, August 2016 hire date.

DTW CA will be around Sept 2016
DFW CA will be around March 2016

So the DFW plug will be the worst, almost 7 years when this is effective Feb 2023.

So Spirit is shrinking DFW and Frontier is expanding (opening DFW crew base).... Hmmmmmm, seems suspect.
