You referring to the TDY? Those are over...the only "program" running right now has 2 month bid lines I believe (granted I could be wrong as I am not a part of that program). From the looks of the bid packets though, any FO that can hold a security clearance should be able to get in it regardless of seniority at the moment.
Everything else AgCat said is about right for your questions Pilottalk.
For LAS there are only 5 CA and 5 FO's who get that assignment and they can not be displaced out of base regardless of seniority.
