Don't think much difference in relative seniority on any of the fleets in EWR for new hires... Biggest issue is if you get 756 or 76T you'll not get to touch the yoke much and will be bunkie except for rare flights while on reserve or bottom line holder... I'd recommend bidding a 737 or 320 based on what lateral base you want next... If IAH don't bid 737... Other bases should be fine.

Very general question. Which fleet has most commutable trips out ewr, 75, 73, 320? Thanx.

756 or 76T hands down. The majority of the flying is transatlantic with afternoon/evening departures and morning/afternoon arrivals.

This does not mean the RSV short call periods always match this, however.

Just be careful with 76t. Early departures out of JFK and a few London trips start at 7:30 am and end at 9:30 pm. This month didn't have as many but it has changed month to month.

756.....Hands down. I don't have a crashpad and I have purchased 3 hotel rooms in the past 6 months.

You fly one or the other. The fleet is not combined.

Thank you...I believe she said 10 756 slots on the phone... I was just trying to determine if the early jfk flying would apply.
