It's not just the ultra senior. I was on the Brasilia commuting from ORD. Once my seat lock was up I saw over 50 people junior to me including new hires get transfers into the domicile I lived in while I continued to commute. It took me 6 months after my seat lock expired to transition into the most junior base. There were so many people below me that I got a line right away on the RJ.
Skywest awards transfers before transitions out of seniority order. "That's the way they've always done it."
