No way to really know. My advice would be to pick your poison between the 320/737 and then you can always put in a bid in the future for the 756. No telling how the future DEN 756 flying will open up, or how the next contract pays different equipment, or the bidding for new equipment language will read…. Just get to DEN and figure that out later.

It’s almost like that’s the point of a…..wait for it……forum. If you don’t like it then there’s plenty of other places to vent. Where else are prospective pilots supposed to get this info?Class date is in 6 weeks FWIW

Classes seem to be trending in the higher 50s, hopefully this can continue!

It’s definitely not the queen of the fleet, but you’ll likely advance faster than on other fleets.
Any insight on new hire openings for the 737 or 320 at LAX? I live in So. Cal., and that would work well for me. Thanks.

If you don't get it as an initial award, you'll almost certainly be able to get it before finishing training.

From a new hire, the class of 60 two weeks ago has already had 9 people leave for other airlines. Time for a contract.

Right now the LAX 320 is slightly more junior than the 73, but more importantly IMO is the LAX 320 base is a whopping 49 FO's. 737 has 262 FO's. So your QOL is going to be much better in the guppy since there will be more pilots to trade and drop trips with, plus much better trips. FWIW LAS 737 is the most junior category in the company, so if for some reason a vacancy like this one doesn't have LAX on it, LAS is right there for you.
