How would they get screwed out of their bid? My understanding is that when you change bases you hold the same week you were awarded.
If it's not available then you bid in vacation "opentime". When the guys leave for DFW, their ATL vacation weeks are put into ATL vacation "opentime" so that the ATL pilots can bid for those weeks in the weekly vacation bid.
