If you wanted to be DEN based and had first choice what would you choose? does it make much difference between 737/320? what about 757 or 787? rough estimates are appreciated.

are the bus slots still going more senior in class? Seems that the bottom quarter of the classes have been getting left with the guppies as of late ?

737>320 but basically the same
Don’t take anything else voluntarily

Between hiring 50/week and new contract dynamics… impossible to make useful predictions. But it has been much less than a year to get 737/320 den recently

Last 737 slot was #39. 40-46 were 756/777/787, 47-51 (the eight-ball) were all A320. The other A320 slots were sprinkled throughout, but 4 slots were in the top 8. So some went senior, some went forced.

YMMV

Starting Indoc soon and have a question.. aiming to bid anything SFO initially with intentions of eventually transferring to IAH (w/i 12-18 months). What aircraft would be easier to base swap? 737? 320?

The current vacancy is staffing 737 FO at 497 and 320 at 142 pilots. The 737 will provide more varied flying, and far more pairings to build a schedule once you’re a line holder. The 320 is a much more comfortable place to work. Good luck picking your poison and welcome to the company.
