I know they can be “fixed”, how about they stop happening in the first place? That’s being set up for failure.

I don't believe I ever disagreed with you on any of that. I simply said it shouldn't bite you if you understand how it works and where it's getting it's info.

SFO would be my ideal base. Looking at the seniority list, it shows SFO more junior on the CRJ side by a month-ish. Even FAT and LAX are not far behind. Yet everyone is saying stay ERJ if you want west coast. At the end of the day, an airplane is an airplane so it really doesn't matter to me. Flip a coin? Roll the dice? Just looking to get SFO/FAT/LAX/california out of training... or a month or two wait.

Seniority wise that might be true. The reason they say that is because the "big picture" of company's growth plan is to focus the ERJ on the west coast (and the new NYC route), while the CRJ predominant growth is east coast- DTW and ATL. Over the last couple years, west coast CRJ lines has significantly deteriorated or outright disappeared.
