Admittedly, I didn’t look at the bid packet, but did look at the tradeboard for SFO. Absolutely awful when compared to East Coast flying

Edit to add that I noticed that in Oct. I just checked for Nov and didn’t 4 leg days, but did see redeyes and 3 leg days

Would it take a long time for a new hire to hold LAX (any air frame)?

There was a new hire class last week with LAX slots.

So yeah, not long. Your class may or may not have slots but it's a junior(ish) base and shouldn't take long to hold, if at all.

Does EWR cover multiple airports like IAD and LAX?

LGA is 737 only at least as far as reporting goes. There is No longer any Airbus LGA shows.

this is correct. They wanted more seats in LGA, so 737 now instead of Bus.

Average about 1 a day in SFO and they actually go fairly senior.
