Ok, point taken. Better way to say it.....the bottom 50 or so 737 Captains in IAH can't hold 320 Captain in Houston based on recent bidding behavior.

It's all related to their seniority. I'm not sure you guys fully understand the displacement process.

To be brief, if their seniority can hold it, they WILL get the bid they seek. No ifs ands or buts. If it can't, then they won't.

It makes NO difference on when any sort of vacancy is released in relation to when a displacement is released. NONE!! NADA!!
