FO and Av8r, I'll give everything another good hard look after these bids close. ONT sounds awesome…
Repeat after me: ONT-DFW-PHX-LAS (HOTEL) LAS-PHX-DFW-PHX-LAS (HOTEL) LAS-PHX-DFW-PHX-LAS (HOTEL) … Kidding, not that bad but as a new guy you’ll see that sequence A LOT
And as for the MD, I figure I'll spend plenty of my career in that plane anyway…
Why will you spend all that time in the MD? - Only if you bid it; unless displaced to it and then you can always bid off of it once you get of your probation.
I have a feeling that regardless what I have in the bid pref, they'll put us probies in either the MD or Z or out in ONT. Guess we'll see after the displacement bid closes.
MD yes, Z yes but I would be very surprised if anyone gets displaced to ONT unless it’s their choice #1. Even though ONT is short on crews there are some ~150 captains for ~120 FOs so they can always use captains to fly in the right seat. I heard MD and Z are short on FOs and CAs.
