New base award announced. I'm just not getting this. 12 FO's moved to IAD, another 30 new-hires were assigned it. Coupled with 17 leaving for DFW, that's still a net gain of 25 to Dulles, which I thought was sufficiently staffed.
As for Phoenix, I thought Standing Bid indicated one permanent spot would open there. Additionally, 11 FO's left Phoenix for other domiciles. So, wouldn't they need 12 people to move there? Only one guy was assigned it... What am I missing?
