Plus, the little bit of added seniority for on the Saab can make a substantial difference (just ask the guys at XJ who've been upgraded/downgraded too many times to count).
To each, his own.
Definately. I wasn't trying to say they would be good lines, only that being "senior" on your equipment gives you a better choice from the pickings. Overall seniority is the name of the game for upgrade and overall health of the airline. Certainly being senior overall is better in troubled times, but with all the growth coming in the next year or two, these new hires will enjoy more flexibility than I/we have had in the last few years.
