Hey guys, I am trying to get LAX as a base. Would prefer to do it on the 73 but would not mind the 75, and after that 320. Do you think bidding the 73 in IAH would trap me there or would I be able to bid out relatively quick. I understand that is probably a tough question to answer but trying to get a game plan before showing up next week.

Immediately might mean before you finish training to some people, which isn’t necessarily the case. The realistic expectation is being able to bid out within the next few months on a vacancy bid and then actually moving to the new domicile on the activation date. That also assumes that not everyone above you is trying to do the same thing (which is realistic IMO).
All that being said 5 months is probably a realistic target.

"You will be able to bid out at the first opportunity"
Best of luck and welcome 👍
