Oh well, I guess they will eventually have to bid the CAPT seats to match, and maybe some junior FO's can get to where they want to be domiciled.
Anyone make any sense out of this?
My guess is that this is setting up for the coming hiring. The company has to be be able to say they offered the slots to existing pilots before they give them to new hires or Furlough Bypass.
