For some reason everyone for the last little bit has focused on vacation and junior pilots getting lines. Why the focus on vacation. Multiple other examples have already been listed. I am 25% seniority on the button in my domicile. In June I had a carryover high credit trip into the first few days of the month. Because of that trip I was not able to be awarded a four day the first few days of the month, therefore my schedule couldn't reach the threshold and I was awarded reserve. PBS moved on to the next junior pilot who had no previously assigned credit (training, vacation, or carryover). At that point it assigned them the four day I couldn't accept and the rest of what I would have had. Is that honoring seniority? It's my opinion that there should be some sort of transition period allowing everyone to have a blank slate and equal opportunity to hold a line as their seniority permits.
