Is that simply b/c people are bidding off monthly, or only when there is an AE? Confused yet? I am. Fingers crossed for NYC or at the very least, an airframe that will get me there!

when there is a new AE. For example, there were people that were in the 6/16 class that got NYC that really wanted ATL. Had the AE come out before the new hire vacancies were offered to our 7/7 class, they would have bid those slots and there would have instead been some NYC slots in my class. So it came down to timing. Next AE is in July, which can potentially work out well for people in my class getting NYC before we finish training. The DTW slots seem to still be just a bit out of reach for new hires, and anything west of that, well, you know how that goes haha.
