3) answered above

4) Alaska just switched to all 175s the rest is a mix I believe
Thanks. Sounds like LAX and PHX are fairly quick to get also. Looks like 2 months or so. Looking to go on the CRJ side.

I would tell them you have no preference, first available. Make sure they give you the one year seat lock, not two. Then switch after a year if you want. You'll have more flexibility and more seniority but just taking the first class. Unless you specifically want to live in SLC that only has the CRJ right now.

What are the current reserve times for ORD on different equipment? Is the crj the best bird to request if ORD is where you want to be based? Thx.

ERJ reserve in ORD is 1 year +, CRJ reserve is pretty much nonexistent

I'm a January 2016 hire on the CRJ; finished IOE at the end of April. I became a lineholder in ORD after two months.

Im hoping to get LAX asap. I live in LAS. Also does every base besides Alaskan flying have the CRJ?
