I was hired in August, LAX 737. Spent a month on reserve and then got a line before transferring out. I’m showing ~65% in base for both SFO and LAX if I were to transfer back. Most new hires get put into the coastal bases and a lot transfer out as soon as they can, so there’s a lot of movement on the bottom of the base seniority list. We are all extremely lucky to be involved in this crazy amount of hiring/movement, and as long as the new hires continue to come through the door I would bet you should have a similar experience.

I'm sorry to hear that. I've had a number of humbling experiences in my life and none of them were pleasant. The first thing that comes to mind was the time I got a C- GPA in high school. I was humbled and then got humbled again by my mother and then again by my father. Very humbling. So I sincerely hope you can learn from this experience and pull out of this rut, maybe even get hired on with Delta soon. Chin up, Bro. It will pass.

I have a 2/21 Indoc. Was debating between 737 EWR and 756 EWR. I’m projected to be halfway in my seniority in class and might not be able to hold the 737. Any insight will be helpful. I also live in FL and plan to commute from MCO and at times JAX.

Given the daylight between you and a line on the 756 is greater than a year, as a commuter, particularly one from FL, it would be better to pick the 320 if you want and can’t get the 737. If you don’t care about commuting to reserve on probation from one of the most senior commutes, then it doesn’t matter.
Thanks I appreciate it.
