[QUOTE=Twiceskunkeddog;149371]Here's a question.... What if the new China domicile really stinks and the Subic guys bail, would the base be "junior manned" (i.e. the bottom X A300 guys get shipped off, or would the bottom guys on the whole seniority list take it in the shorts regardless of current seat)? This of course assumes no hiring because of 65 rule deal.That possibility makes those 20 Airbus slots less inviting.QUOTE]


I do not think they can force you an FDA if you do not want.
If it was a SIBA type bid (which it appears is not the case) you could be involuntary assgined SIBA.

If they cannot fill vacancies with a Standing BID (like what happened in ANC) they will probably have to put new Hires over there..........

We will just have to wait to see what the company plans to do.

Will FedEx do the right thing?
Will FedEx do what most other Corporations do for their Expat employees?
Will they give a Housing subsidy?
Will they pay a COLA for China and Europe?
Will they help out with School tuition?
Will they pay overrides for TAX issues?
Do they want experience crews over there?

Time will tell. We can always Call our ACP's and express our concerns!
