To my knowledge the remainder of the bases fly for all three except MCI, which presently does AA and UA only, and IAH which does UA and DL only.
The kinds of trips each base gets just tends to shift with the seasons. There isn’t necessarily a set kind of trip per base (though some have more shorter pairings like LGA). There’s not necessarily any geographic significance. Hub bases typically have turns you can drop/trade (flica gods permitting) the first or last day of a trip to make a trip commutable, outstation bases may not.

The reason nobody is probably taking the time to put this together because we are not sure why it would even matter? We get benefits on all 3 and you could end up flying for all 3 in a given month.

It’s not about the benefits, I clearly know that. I thought the purpose of a forum was to talk about things and/or ask questions to get information. I didn’t know the purpose was having to explain why you’re asking a question.

Would someone be able to check the DOH of the lowest MIA FO? And if you had it the current denied number for the last bid to see how many people want it also too.
I know I know, it takes a while to get there. But I’ve been hearing 1 year isn’t far fetched and that’s ok with me. Envoy won’t interview me as a street FO and MIA is the best base for me. Not sure if waiting would be smart or not.

On the September award, the highest seniority number was DOH 10/30/17, also a backfill award. Those should give you some idea of what to expect.

I went and found the highest seniority number awarded MIA on the October vacancy award. DOH 12/11/17. This was a backfill award, meaning a vacancy created by someone else choosing to leave MIA at the same time. Most junior non-backfill award DOH was 10/30/17.
