Excellent. Thank you for the responses. I know it’s always a moving target and the “when can I?” questions can become tiresome. I’m just trying to do my best at navigating the airline change.

I’m currently sitting as a captain with around 4K on the bus. So I’d definitely like a change of scenery.

Can confirm. Gonna be reserve forever on this thing in ORD. I’d say if you want ORD, 737/320 is the way to go.

Could someone please chime in how long it would take to hold junior 75/76 CA in EWR?

Long enough there will be a new contract likely to change it

There's a 2017 hire that may get it during the current vacancy, but generally yeah... I'd say the better part of a decade. By that point, for someone starting now, not only will a new contract (or two) change things, but the 756 fleet will likely have started disappearing.

What does the 756 flying and seniority look like for SFO? Any idea of the timing for the remainder of the 752 retirements?

Looking at BES drops in the last few classes, I haven't seen any IAD at all. If one wants to get 756 to IAD, but has to select EWR when class starts, any idea (ballpark) how long it might take to shift to IAD? Thanks!

As far as I know it's kinda crappy, and therefore pretty junior (SFO 756 CA actually went unfilled recently). Probably a good number of redeyes, especially for those junior in their seat. No sure on the timing question.

Most junior guy to get DCA 756 FO on the recent vacancy was just over seniority number 15k. Best guess 6-9 months from starting.
