K. Pilots in the same Equipment and Status may trade Bases if both pilots hold the same Equipment and Status on the most recent System Bid or Adjustment Bid award. The proposed trade must be posted by an electronic or similar means provided by the Company for thirty (30) Calendar Days. The trade will be approved after thirty (30) Calendar Days if there are no valid objections. An objection is considered valid when submitted by a pilot whose seniority is between the seniority of the two pilots who are trading Bases and who is in one of the two BES's being traded.

I'm not sure what the success rate is but I tried it once when I (and several others) had been displaced from the base where our homes were. There was one pilot there who wanted to trade with one of us. Each of us would put a base trade request in with him and, one by one, another pilot who was still at the base would "object" to the trade. Not only that but he strategically waited the full 30 days to object so the process would be slowed down. All the while we're away from family, six days at a time sitting reserve in a crash pad or own-expense hotel. Our only hope was that he would slip up and forget to object to one of the attempts. He didn't. He had the contractual right to do this and it would have pushed him down a single position but it still was a raw thing to experience.
