It could also be much longer depending on how many people are in front of you when you meet the minimums. I'd plan five years.
And if a new hire wait 4 years, how senior do you think he/she would be by that time? Very senior!! So they'd probably be at the front of the line to "flow" by that time. Ha!

Which, unfortunately, proves that C5 is a bad place. If are very senior at an airline after only four years, that’s a problem. That means no one stays. And that doesn’t mean they are all leaving for majors. It means they are also leaving for other regionals. C5 doesn’t have a tough time keeping captains, they can’t keep FOs. That’s a huge red flag for any potential new hire.

At good regionals, four years of seniority wouldn’t have you even close to halfway up the list.

And here is the great thing that you don't see, it shows movement!! So you'd hold a line quicker, upgrade quicker and move on quicker. Thanks for helping me show that point ha! MOVEMENT!! And we had a lot of movement from the top of the seniority list these last months. If I was stupid, I'd think you're a C5 recruiter too hot potato. Thanks again.

Why go to a place where you potentially sit reserve for years becuz of no movement?

Hint: there is no such thing a good regional unless you planning on being a lifer. Get in, get it, GET OUT!! Efficiently.

Again, it’s movement to OTHER REGIONALS. That’s NOT good. Of my class of 27, 10 have left for other regionals. One for Southern (which is even worse than a regional). That speaks volumes.

You can take before class starts, but you have to accept the offer and do on boarding first.

Management does sitting conditional reserve time count towards the CPP requirement because I seem to sit more conditional reserve than anything else around here. Note that in the last 2 weeks I have been at work for 12 out of 14 days and I have flown a grand total of 15 hours due to the cancellations and re assignments from my scheduled line flying to conditional reserve.

Yes people conditional reserve is a term at this place used to assign line holders to airport reserve.
