For an FO standing bid, the award will only list:

1) People awarded *new* domiciles which were higher up on their list of preferences

2) New hires who did not have a base assigned yet (they're awarded the domicile highest up on their list of preferences that they can hold)

Keep in mind the projected vacancy numbers are almost never exact, and it's a very dynamic process. Senior FOs moving around can create more or less slots to backfill in diff domiciles, the company changes their staffing requirements in diff bases around up until the minute they process the awards.

Hope that further clarifies the process!
