What seniority are you talking about. I hope it's not hire date. I will explain it again, please put on your listening ears. Your hire date at UAL, provided your schedule, seat, and aircraft. Ours did the same at cal. But it has no bearing when groups are merged. Airlines hire at different times, go through bankruptcies, buy and sell aircraft. Your years of service at your old company don't matter in a fair lists, only what you bring to the table, so to speak. ALPA changed that to help UAL pilots. Afraid they would be voted out if y'all weren't kept happy. I can't fathom how you don't see that. Did you lose your helmet again? Insurance only covers two a year please be more careful.
